Hedy Lamarr

I've been an important star and lived a full life, yet I only hve three close friends. I guess that's all anyone can expect.

A good painting to me has always been like a friend. It keeps me company, comforts and inspires.

It's funny about men and women. Men pay in cash to get them and pay in cash to get rid of them. Women pay emotionally coming and going. Neither has it easy.

I must quit marrying men who feel inferior to me. Somewhere there must be a man who could be my husband and not feel inferior.

I've met the most interesting people while flying or on a boat. These methods of travel seem to attract the kind of people I want to be with.

I'm fifty-one years old, but I'm not through yet. I have lived a full life, and intend packing in quite a lot more.

The world isn't getting any easier. With all these new inventions I believe that people are hurried more and pushed more... The hurried way is not the right way; you need time for everything - time to work, time to play, time to rest.

Many people are target people. Once when Louis B. Mayer insulted me I poured a glass of water over his head.

I can excuse everything but boredom. Boring people don't have to stay that way.

I am not ashamed to say that no man I ever met was my father's equal, and I never loved any other man as much.
