hepburn
Nobody can imitate me. You can always see impersonations of Katharine Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. But not me. Because I've always drawn on myself only.
christian suicide thinking
If I weren't a Christian Scientist, and I saw "Trog" advertised on a marquee across the street, I'd think I'd contemplate suicide.
want i-can ifs
If I can't be me, I don't want to be anybody
discipline what-is-life strict
I was a strict disciplinarian, perhaps too strict at times, but my God, without discipline what is life?
fairness sometimes deals
Life deals from the bottom, sometimes, doesn't it?
stars husband believe
Sensitive husbands don't like second billing. I don't believe Franchot ever for a moment resented the fact that I was a star. Possibly he resented Hollywood's refusal to let him forget it. There was never a doubt in my mind that his talent was greater than mine.
hands house gloves
I used to wash my hands every ten minutes. I couldn't step out of the house unless I had gloves on. I wouldn't smoke a cigarette unless I opened the pack myself, and I would never use another cigarette out of that pack if someone else had touched it.
grateful giving coal
Mr. Cukor is a hard task-master, a fine director and he took me over the coals giving me the roughest time I have ever had. And I am eternally grateful.
grandmother auntie graves
I absolutely will not allow anyone to call me grandmother. They can call me Auntie Joan, Dee-Dee, Cho-Cho, anything but grandmother. It pushes a woman almost to the grave.
wise party home
Recently I heard a 'wise guy' story that I had a party at my home for twenty-five men. It's an interesting story, but I don't know twenty-five men I'd want to invite ta a party.
unhappy littles faces
Women's Lib? Poor little things. They always look so unhappy. Have you noticed how bitter their faces are?
sexy people faces
There's nothing wrong with my tits but I don't go around throwing them in people's faces.
stars real class
Of all the actresses ... to me, only Faye Dunaway has the talent and the class and the courage it takes to make a real star.
done lambs ovens
If you throw a lamb chop in the oven, what's to keep it from getting done?
