It isn't that gentlemen really prefer blondes, it's just that we look dumber.

When I was very young and first worked in Hollywood, the films had bred in me one sole ambition: to get away from them; to live inthe great world outside movies; to meet people who created their own situations through living them; who ad-libbed their own dialogue; whose jokes were not the contrivance of some gag writer.

I've had my best times when trailing a Mainbocher evening gown across a sawdust floor. I've always loved high style in low company.

Sometimes writers of no talent at all can write great acting scenes. Sometimes the very best writers can't write scenes that come to life.

It isn't that gentlemen really prefer blondes, it's just that we look dumber.

If we have to tell Hollywood good-by, it may be with one of those tender, old-fashioned, seven-second kisses exchanged between two people of the opposite sex, with all their clothes on.

The wrong side of the tracks is livelier.
