Personal Quotes
Acting is a nice childish profession - pretending you're someone else and at the
same time selling yourself.I'm a personality as well as an actress. Show me an actress who isn't a personality
and you'll show me a woman who isn't a star.If you have fame, you never feel that you have fame, if you have the brains of a
flea. Because fame is something that's over back of you. It ain't ahead.... Not
ahead at all. I mean, if you've done it that's great, but "what are you going to
do now?" is the only thing that matters.

West's Lips Sofa" (1937).Personal Quotes
Ten men waiting for me at the door? Send one of them home, I'm tired.
I wrote the story myself. It's all about a girl who lost her reputation but
never missed it.I'm my own original creation. I concentrate on myself most of the time. That's
the only way a person can become a star in the true sense. I never wanted
a love that meant surrender of my self-possession. I saw what it did to other
people when they loved another person the way I loved myself, and I didn't
want that problem. I had to stay in command of my career.Natural hair color: Blonde; Eye color: Blue; Height: 5' 0" / 1.52cm;
