I'll be goddamned if I'm going to stay in a business where I have to get up earlier and earlier and it takes longer and longer for me to get in front of a camera.

When I married Prince Rainier, I married the man and not what he represented or what he was. I fell in love with him without giving a thought to anything else.

As an unmarried woman, I was thought to be a danger.

I've been accused of being cold, snobbish, distant. Those who know me well know that I’m nothing of the sort. If anything, the opposite is true. But is it too much to ask to want to protect your private life, your inner feelings? Lots of things touch me and I don’t want to be indiscreet.

I’ve always treated my children as beings in their own right. I respect their feelings and aspirations entirely.

I don't want to be married to someone who feels inferior to my success or because I make more money than he does.

The freedom of the press works in such a way that there is not much freedom from it.
