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

I haven’t had everything from life. I’ve had too much.

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

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

Men fell in love with Gilda, but they wake up with me.

Basically, I am a good, gentle person, but I am attracted to mean personalities.
