I live by a man's code, designed to fit a man's world, yet at the same time I never forget that a woman's first job is to choose the right shade of lipstick.
Carole LombardA woman has just as much right in this world as a man and can get along in it just as well if she puts her mind to it.
Carole LombardDo you laugh in the right places? Then, youโll get along, in fair weather or foul. Humor is nothing less than a sense of the fitness of things. Something thatโs out of proportion, like an inflated ego, should strike you funny, particularly if itโs your own inflated ego. Otherwise you are pathetic and quite hopeless.
Carole LombardI don't seem to get solemn about it, and some people might not understand. That's why I never talk about it. I think it's all here -- in the mountains and the desert. I don't think God is a softie, either. In the end, it's better if people are forced back into -- well -- into being right, before they're too far gone. I think your temple is your everyday living.
Carole LombardI think marriage is dangerous. The idea of two people trying to possess each other is wrong. I don't think the flare of love lasts. Your mind rather than your emotions must answer for the success of matrimony. It must be friendship - a calm companionship which can last through the years.
