From the time I was twelve I was dancing for bread and butter, but in my heart I was always an actress.

Every man I have ever known has fallen in love with Gilda and awakened with me.

I think all women have a certain elegance about them which is destroyed when they take off their clothes.

Sensitive, shy-of course I was. The fun of acting is to become someone else.

Whatever you write about me, don't make it sad.

I guess the only jewels of my life were the pictures I made with Fred Astaire.

I like having my picture taken and being a glamorous person. Sometimes when I find myself getting impatient, I just remember the times I cried my eyes out because nobody wanted to take my picture at the Trocadero.
