“Sex. In America an obsession. In other parts of the world a fact.”

I’m worth more dead than alive. Don’t cry for me after I’m gone; cry for me now.

When you’re dead, you’re dead. That’s it.

America took me into her bosom when there was no longer a country worthy of the name, but in my heart I am German – German in my soul.

Glamour is what I sell, it’s my stock in trade.

A man would prefer to come home to an unmade bed and a happy woman than to a neatly made bed and an angry woman.

I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men.

You need a man you can look up to and respect. If you dethrone him it’s no wonder that you are discontented, and discontented women are not loved for long.

Most women set out to try to change a man, and when they have changed him they do not like him.

I never enjoyed working in a film.

To be completely woman you need a master, and in him a compass for your life.

It’s the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.

The Germans and I no longer speak the same language.

I am not a myth.

A king, realizing his incompetence, can either delegate or abdicate his duties.

How do you know love is gone? If you said that you would be there at seven and you get there by nine, and he or she has not called the police yet – it’s gone.

The weak are more likely to make the strong weak than the strong are likely to make the weak strong.

I’m not leaving until you tell me why you followed me. I know i’m a fascinating guy, but this is starting to feel like an unhealthy obsession.

The bad thing about small-town life is that everybody knows your business…I suppose that is my central obsession. What we owe to society, what we owe to ourselves.

Everything I wore was pink and sparkly. And I had an obsession with headbands. I felt like I rocked them, though!

When I was a child, I probably should have been medicated about my obsession with The Spice Girls.

In America, sex is an obsession, in other parts of the world it’s a fact.

I’m not personally obsessed with death. At a certain age, the light that you live in is inhabited by the shades – it ’tis.

To do anything to a high level, it has to be total obsession.

But my principle obsessions are still watching sitcoms and football.
