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

Increasingly, stars are recruited from the ranks of professional models, with the result that today`s starlets are better dressed and better groomed than ever before, though it is doubtful if they are better actresses.

No one can be Gilda twenty-four hours a day.

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.

Every actor. every director, everybody needs an Oscar. You have to have that little statue in Hollywood or else you are nothing.

Every man I knew went to bed with Gilda... and woke up with me.

We are all tied to our destiny and there is no way we can liberate ourselves.
