Some people dream of having a big swimming pool. With me, it’s closets
Happy girls are always the prettiest
I am proud to have been in a business that gives pleasure, creates beauty, and awakens our conscience, arouses compassion, and perhaps most importantly, gives millions a respite from our so violent world.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
Beauty is being the best possible version of yourself, inside and out.
Everything I learned I learned from the movies.
I never think of myself as an icon. What is in other people's minds is not in my mind. I just do my thing.
I don't want to be alone, I want to be left alone.
I've been lucky. Opportunities don't often come along. So, when they do, you have to grab them.
No. The blues are because you're getting fat and maybe it's been raining too long; you're just sad, that's all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you're afraid and you don't know what you're afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling? Well, when I get it the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany's. Calms me down right away. The quietness and the proud look of it. Nothing very bad could happen to you there. If I could find a real-life place that'd make me feel like Tiffany's, then - then I'd buy some furniture and give the cat a name!
I lack self-confidence. I don't know whether I shall ever get it. Perhaps it is better to be unsure of your self, as I am. But it is very tiring.
Make-up can only make you look pretty on the outside but it doesn't help if your ugly on the inside. Unless you eat the make-up.
And the beauty of a woman, with passing years only grows!
I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel.
