My fans have always loved my metaphors.

The idea of my life as a fairy tale is itself a fairy tale.

I avoid looking back. I prefer good memories to regrets.

I am basically a feminist. I think that women can do anything they decide to do.

I love walking in the woods, on the trails, along the beaches. I love being part of nature. I love walking alone. It is therapy. One needs to be alone, to recharge one's batteries.

I never say 'never,' and I never say 'always.'

A person has to keep something to herself or you're life is just a layout in a magazine.

I've had happy moments in my life, but I don't think that happiness-- being happy-- is a perpetual state that anyone can be in. Life isn't that way.

Mr. Hitchcock taught me everything about cinema. It was thanks to him that I understood that murder scenes should be shot like love scenes and love scenes like murder scenes.

The pearl is the queen of gems and the gem of queens.

When I married Prince Rainier, I married the man and not what he represented or what he was. I fell in love with him without giving a thought to anything else.

You have to be a great lover to be a beloved.

I have a feeling, one of those gut feelings, that I'll make pretty good movies the rest of my life.

My scientific work is motivated by an irresistible longing to understand the secrets of nature not by other feelings.

To close the eyes, and give a seemly comfort to the apparel of the dead, is poverty's holiest touch of nature.

I have the happiness of a passing moment, and what more can mortal ask?

Even when there is no longer hope for the body, there is always hope for the soul.

Listen if you want to be heard

I did no research on The Best Man. That was something that came out from my own head.

Like there's actually a need for Greenland. You can get ice at 7-Eleven.

There is dignity in your being even if there's indignity in what you're doing.
