I don't yearn to be a child again.

Unless some misfortune has made it impossible, everyone can have good posture.

I've learned that getting what you want gives you a pretty high batting average, and leaves you plenty to struggle for.

I'm not sure the public knows what it wants.

Nearly everyone I met, worked with, or read about was my teacher, one way or another.

What you don't know intrigues you more than what you do know.

Everything worthwhile, everything of any value, has its price. Everything anyone has ever wanted has come neatly wrapped up in its penalties.

I believe you have to nurture your conscience.

Your hands, your eyes, your voice, your thoughts are your servants.

In 1949 there was a new thing called Television, to which my agency and advisers opposed as a performance medium.

In my dreams, I could be a Princess, and that's what I was. Like most little girls, I believed nothing less than a Prince could make my dreams come true.

I can't imagine dating a boy, meeting him only outside the home. What's a home and family for if it's not the center of one's life?

Glamour is something you can't bear to be without once you're used to it.

I learned you have to fight for yourself in the picture business.

I was deaf and dumb and blind to all but me, myself and I.
