 Jack Kennedy always said to me, Hedy, get involved. That's the secret of life. Try everything. Join everything. Meet everybody. |
| I have always felt that if a man gives you a solid gold key to his door he is entitled to the courtesy of a visit. |
| Men are most virile and most attractive between the ages of 35 and 55. Under 35 a man has too much to learn, and I don't have time to teach him. |
| To be a star is to own the world and all the people in it. After a taste of stardom, everything else is poverty. |
| I think women are concerned too much with their clothes. Men don't really care that much about women's clothes. If they like a girl, chances are they'll like her clothes. |
| Mr. DeMille's theory of sexual difference was that marriage is an artificial state for women. The want to be taken, ruled, raped. That was his theory. |
| Most children turn out badly because they have the wrong parental image. This doesn't mean their parents are criminal. It means they are boring and cruel. |
| Lawyers know how to take isolated complaints in a divorce case and build them into one big one. |
| I appreciate subtlety. I have never enjoyed a kiss in front of the camera. There's nothing to it except not getting your lipstick smeared. |
| I don't have any gnawing guilt over contributing to any unhappiness suffered by my husbands. They were as much to blame as I was. |
| It's funny about men and women. Men pay in cash to get them and pay in cash to get rid of them. Women pay emotionally coming and going. Neither has it easy. |
| The ceremony took six minutes. The marriage lasted about the same amount of time though we didn't get a divorce for almost a year. |
| Let any pretty girl announce a divorce in Hollywood and the wolves come running. Fresh meat for the beast, and they are always hungry. |
| The public pays and feels it is entitled to participate in the personal affairs of a performer. |
| The ladder of success in Hollywood is usually a press agent, actor, director, producer, leading man; and you are a star if you sleep with each of them in that order. Crude, but true. |
| When I attained a certain advanced intimacy with a man, and I don't just mean sex, I married him. |
| I've met the most interesting people while flying or on a boat. These methods of travel seem to attract the kind of people I want to be with. |
| I know why most people never get rich. They put the money ahead of the job. If you just think of the job, the money will automatically follow. This never fails. |
| Dates with actors, finally, just seemed to me evenings of shop talk. I got sick of it after a hile. So the more famous I became, the more I narrowed down my choices. |
| I advise everybody not to save: spend your money. Most people save all their lives and leave it to somebody else. Money is to be enjoyed. |
