I have always considered my career self and my personal self as two different and separate people. There's a Jayne Mansfield at home, a wife and devoted mother, and there's Jayne the sex symbol, which is my career. I have always kept them completely apart and separate.

To function as an actress, I have to be in love. I have to have that incentive to work.

I'd like ten more babies and ten more chihuahuas and a few Academy Awards. Meanwhile, I enjoy being a sex symbol and making people happy.

I've got the strangest build. It's big in the hips, small in the waist and I've got these enormous ... shoulders.

Cary Grant was one of the most marvelous men I've ever met.

I don't particularly enjoy publicity, it seems to just follow me around.
