For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.
I don't want to be alone, I want to be left alone.
I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person.
I never think of myself as an icon. What is in other people's minds is not in my mind. I just do my thing.
I never thought I'd land in pictures with a face like mine.
I probably hold the distinction of being one movie star who, by all laws of logic, should never have made it. At each stage of my career, I lacked the experience.
I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing 'Funny Face' when I couldn't sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.
I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.
If I get married, I want to be very married.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm, as you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others.
Success is like reaching an important birthday and finding you're exactly the same.
The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.
