“I don’t want to get involved in the racial situation at the expense of losing fans. I wouldn’t say anything too strong but I do know that God created us equal and we’re not living up to it.”

If you’re going to do something wrong, do it big, because the punishment is the same either way.

To establish yourself as an actress, you have to become well known. A girl just starting out, I would tell her to concentrate on acting, but she doesn’t have to go around wearing blankets.

I love sex. It should be animalistic, it should be sadistic, it should at times be masochistic. There are few rules and moral conventions.

Men are those creatures with two legs and eight hands.

Men are creatures with eight hands.

A lot of happiness can be brought to the mentally distraught by a little understanding.

Once you were a starlet. Then you’re a star. Can you be a starlet again?

I will never be satisfied. Life is one constant search for the betterment for me.

We eat a lot of lean meat and fresh vegetables.

My earliest memories are the best. I always try to remember the good times when Daddy was alive.

Carrying a baby is the most rewarding experience a female can enjoy. A father shares in that experience, knowing that he caused it to happen.

I guess a lot of people think that a girl who shows her bosom and wears tight dresses can’t be close to God. God has always been close to me. Only He knew what was in my heart.

Stars were made to suffer, and I am a star.

Carrying a baby is the most rewarding experience a woman can enjoy.

I hope that I have given happiness to others. I hope I have given children to the world, and that I have made some kind of a mark for myself here.

I like being a pin-up girl. There’s nothing wrong with it.

Both of them were very good and kind – the one who went to church and the one who didn’t. And no doubt from them I learned to like both Christians and sinners equally well.

Let America be America, where equality is in the air we breathe.

The whole art of making experiments in chemistry is founded on the principle: we must always suppose an exact equality or equation between the principles of the body examined and those of the products of its analysis.

It is impossible to make a clear cut between science, religion, and art. The whole is never equal simply to the sum of its various parts.

9 to 5 made people aware of equal pay for equal work. It hasn’t really happened, but it has come closer.

Sulfur, when burning, absorbs oxygen gas; the resulting acid is considerably heavier than the sulfur burned; its weight is equal to the sum of weights of the sulfur burned and the oxygen absorbed.

In rain water, I observed a small red worm and two other kinds of very minute insects; of those of the larger size, I judged that 30,000 together would not equal a coarse sand.

For my part, I hold it equally impossible for a small shellfish to be produced without generation as for a whale to have its origin from the mud.
