I never had a great role in a great film.

A woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets.

I do not need a man. I am devoted to masturbation. I think it's probably one of the most pleasurable experiences in life.

The great actresses and actors receive awards for great roles in great films.

When I was little I thought, isn't it nice that everybody celebrates on my birthday? Because it's July 4th.

I'm amazed. When I was 40, I thought I'd never make 50. And at 50 I thought the frosting on the cake would be 60. At 60, I was still going strong and enjoying everything.

I have enjoyed acting very much, because I know it's not for real!

When I graduated from Santa Monica High in 1927, I was voted the girl most likely to succeed. I didn't realize it would take so long.

When I went back to New York with somewhat of a name, they didn't want movie actresses.

It was a struggle treating Claude Rains as my lover, but we were friendly. It was no great love affair.

I wanted to be on the stage, doing very important emotional roles.

Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.

For the sake of our security, our economy and our planet, we must have the courage and commitment to change.

If you don't know something, admit it. But, try to impress them with what you do know.

We are all impacted by the failings of a news media that almost always chooses which stories to cover according to the priorities and perspectives of white men with private educations.

The question is really how do we think seriously about this mechanism called a market. It ought to be determining not values but prices.

We're Mexi-cans not Mexi-can'ts.

Hide our ignorance as we will, an evening of wine soon reveals it.

Those who expect moments of change to be comfortable and free of conflict have not learned their history.

At one time they've been the most important thing to me. So I can't hear our records on the radio, I can't stand it, because they sound so out of what everyone else is doing.

First of all, you have to understand that I'm like anybody else. When I hear my voice on a record I absolutely loathe my voice. I cannot stand my voice.
