종이라고 하는 것은 치면 소리가 난다. 쳐도 소리가 나지 않는 것은 세상에서 버린 종이다. 또 거울이란 비추면 그림자가 나타난다. 비추어도 그림자가 나타나지 않는 것은 세상에서 내다버린 거울이다. 보통 사람이란 사랑하면 따라온다. 사랑해도 따라오지 않는 사람은 또한 세상에서 버린 사람이다.

Without discipline, there’s no life at all.
Why slap them on the wrist with feather when you can belt them over the head with a sledgehammer.
When I started out, I didn’t have any desire to be an actress or to learn how to act. I just wanted to be famous.
We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers – but never blame yourself. It’s never your fault. But it’s always your fault, because if you wanted to change you’re the one who has got to change.
To keep your character intact you cannot stoop to filthy acts. It makes it easier to stoop the next time.
The most minor gifts and not a very high class way to earn a living. After all, Shirley Temple could do it at the age of four.
The average Hollywood film star’s ambition is to be admired by an American, courted by an Italian, married to an Englishman and have a French boyfriend.
Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door and just visit now and then.
Someone asked someone who was about my age: “How are you?” The answer was, “Fine. If you don’t ask for details.”
Plain women know more about men than beautiful women do.
Only the really plain people know about love – the very fascinating ones try so hard to create an impression that they soon exhaust their talents.
My greatest strength is common sense. I’m really a standard brand – like Campbell’s tomato soup or Baker’s chocolate.
Marriage is a series of desperate arguments people feel passionately about.
Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get – only with what you are expecting to give – which is everything.
Living wasn’t easy for you, was it? You couldn’t enter your own life, but you could be someone else. You weren’t you then; you were safe.
Life is to be lived. If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. And you don’t do that by sitting around.
Life is hard. After all, it kills you.
It’s life isn’t it? You plow ahead and make a hit. And you plow on and someone passes you. Then someone passes them. Time levels.
It’s a rather rude gesture, but at least it’s clear what you mean.
It’s a business you go into because your an egocentric. It’s a very embarrassing profession.
If you want to sacrifice the admiration of many men for the criticism of one, go ahead, get married.
If you obey all the rules you miss all the fun.
If you always do what interests you, at least one person is pleased.
I think most of the people involved in any art always secretly wonder whether they are really there because they’re good or there because they’re lucky.
I never realized until lately that women were supposed to be the inferior sex.
I have many regrets, and I’m sure everyone does. The stupid things you do, you regret… if you have any sense, and if you don’t regret them, maybe you’re stupid.
I don’t care what is written about me so long as it isn’t true.
I can remember walking as a child. It was not customary to say you were fatigued. It was customary to complete the goal of the expedition.
Enemies are so stimulating.
Drive on. We’ll sweep up the blood later!
Death will be a great relief. No more interviews.
Being a housewife and a mother is the biggest job in the world, but if it doesn’t interest you, don’t do it – I would have made a terrible mother.
As for me, prizes are nothing. My prize is my work.
Acting is the perfect idiot’s profession.
Acting is the most minor of gifts. After all, Shirley Temple could do it when she was four.
