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

Who wouldn't prefer having breakfast in bed to getting up at the crack of dawn and having a cup of coffee in a studio makeup department?

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

When I look back on my marriages, or the breakups, sure I know the pain I went through, but that's part of life and it has its own value.

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

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

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