I don't want everybody to see exactly where I live, what my sofa or my fireplace looks like.

My travels have always been of the same kind. No matter where I've gone or why I've gone there it ends up that I never see anything. Becoming a movie star is living on a merry-go-round. When you travel you take the merry-go-round with you. You don't see natives or new scenery. You see chiefly the same press agents, the same sort of interviewers, and the same picture layouts of yourself.

The public doesn't mind people living together without being married, providing they don't overdo it.

Anything’s possible, almost.

I want to be an artist, not an erotic freak. I don’t want to be sold to the public as a celluloid aphrodisiac.

Dating a new man is like holding a strawberry milkshake; first the taste, then the pleasure.

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.
