“I'm selfish, impatient and a
little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to
handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't
deserve me at my best.”
“I believe that everything
happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go
wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you
eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall
apart so better things can fall together.”
“Imperfection is beauty,
madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely
boring.”
“A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't
believe, and leaves before she is left.”
“I am good, but not an angel. I
do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to
find someone to love.”
“This life is what you make it.
No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But
the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will
be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come,
some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true
best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best
friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I
hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to
break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never
find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that
goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail
at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in
yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high,
keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a
beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”
“If you can make a girl laugh,
you can make her do anything.”
“The real lover is the man who
can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just
staring into space.”
“If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them
pretty.”

“Ever notice how 'What the hell' is always the right
answer?”
“When it comes down to it, I let them think what they want.
If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than
them.”
“Give a girl the right shoes,
and she can conquer the world.”
“We should all start to live
before we get too old. Fear is stupid. So are regrets.”
“I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves.
They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a
character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving
somebody I wasn't.”
“She was a girl who knew how to be happy even when she was
sad. And that’s important—you know ”
“Beneath the makeup and behind
the smile I am just a girl who wishes for the world.”
“I don't mind living in a man's
world, as long as I can be a woman in it.”
“All little girls should be told they are pretty, even if
they aren't.”
“The nicest thing for me is
sleep, then at least I can dream.”
“Who said nights were for sleep?”
“It's not true that I had nothing on. I had the radio on.”
“Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition.”
“You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one
but yourself.”
“We are all of us stars, and we
deserve to twinkle.”
“It's often just enough to be with someone. I don't need to
touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not
alone.”
“If I'd observed all the rules
I'd never have got anywhere.”
“I want to grow old without facelifts. I want to have the
courage to be loyal to the face I have made.”
“Success makes so many people
hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success
without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you.”
“Dogs never bite me. Just
humans.”
“I don't know who invented high
heels, but all women owe him a lot!”
“I don't mind making jokes, but
I don't want to look like one.”
“Sex is part of nature. I go along with nature.”
“Keep smiling, because life is
a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”
“I don't want to make money, I just want to be wonderful.”
―
“You never know what life is like, until you have lived it.”
“I restore myself when I'm
alone.”
“Sometimes things fall apart so that better things can fall
together”
“It's all make believe, isn't
it?”
“The body is meant to be seen, not all covered up.”
“We are all born sexual creatures, thank God, but it's a
pity so many people despise and crush this natural gift.”
“All a girl really wants is for
one guy to prove to her that they are not all the same.”
“I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and
sexual. Beauty and femininity are ageless and can't be contrived, and glamour,
although the manufacturers won't like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real
glamour; it's based on femininity.”
“I'm very definitely a woman
and I enjoy it. ”
“I have feelings too. I am still human. All I want is to be
loved, for myself and for my talent. ”
“Hollywood is a place where
they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul. I
know, because I turned down the first offer often enough and held out for the
fifty cents.”
“I'm pretty, but I'm not
beautiful.
I'm sin, but I'm not the devil.
I'm good, but I'm not an angel.
I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.”
“What do I wear in bed? Why,
Chanel No. 5, of course”
“If I play a stupid girl and ask a stupid question, I've got
to follow it through, what am I supposed to do, look intelligent?”
“I used to think as I looked
out on the Hollywood night — there must be thousands of girls sitting alone
like me, dreaming of becoming a movie star. But I'm not going to worry about
them. I'm dreaming the hardest.”
