Audrey Hepburn

Paris is always a good idea.

Since the world has existed there has been injustice. But it is one world the more so as it becomes smaller more accessible. There is just no question that there is more obligation that those who have should give to those who have nothing.

As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands one for helping yourself the other for helping others.

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.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.

Let's face it a nice creamy chocolate cake does a lot for a lot of people, it does for me.

I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair.

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.

People even more than things have to be restored renewed revived reclaimed and redeemed, never throw out anyone.

I decided very early on just to accept life unconditionally, I never expected it to do anything special for me yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.

You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him.

I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel.

When you have nobody you can make a cup of tea for when nobody needs you that's when I think life is over.

Success is like reaching an important birthday and finding you're exactly the same.

I was born with an enormous need for affection and a terrible need to give it.

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.

If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.

If my world were to cave in tomorrow I would look back on all the pleasures excitements and worthwhilenesses I have been lucky enough to have had. Not the sadness not my miscarriages or my father leaving home but the joy of everything else. It will have been enough.
