More quotes by Audrey Hepburn
Cheating on a good woman is like choosing trash over treasure.
Audrey Hepburn
You go back. You search for what made you happy when you were smaller. We are all grown up children, really... So one should go back and search for what was loved and found to be real.
Audrey Hepburn
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed never throw out anyone.
Audrey Hepburn
Taking care of children has nothing to do with politics. I think perhaps with time, instead of there being a politicisation of humanitarian aid, there will be a humanisation of politics.
Audrey Hepburn
Take care of the small circle around you. When you have succeeded with them, then move outwards, one small step at a time.
Audrey Hepburn
Who thinks you're as fantastic as your dog does?
Audrey Hepburn
If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.
Audrey Hepburn
Have we forgotten about the children, and thus forsaken the next generation?
Audrey Hepburn
The 'Third World' is a term I don't like very much, because we're all one world. I want people to know that the largest part of humanity is suffering.
Audrey Hepburn
Happiness is health and a short memory!
Audrey Hepburn
I am proud to have been in a business that gives pleasure, creates beauty, and awakens our conscience, arouses compassion, and perhaps most importantly, gives millions a respite from our so violent world.
Audrey Hepburn
Giving is living. If you stop wanting to give, there's nothing more to live for.
Audrey Hepburn
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.
Audrey Hepburn
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
Audrey Hepburn
I am not beautiful. My mother once called me an ugly duckling. But,listed separately, I have a few good features.
Audrey Hepburn
My greatest victory has been to be able to live with myself, to accept my shortcomings. I'm a long way from the human being I'd liked to be, but I've decided I'm not so bad after all.
Audrey Hepburn
When the chips are down, you are alone, and loneliness can be terrifying. Fortunately, I've always had a chum I could call. And I love to be alone. It doesn't bother me one bit. I’m my own company.
Audrey Hepburn
It's that wonderful old-fashioned idea that others come first and you come second. This was the whole ethic by which I was brought up. Others matter more than you do, so 'don't fuss, dear get on with it.'
Audrey Hepburn
Ricorda, se hai bisogno di una mano la troverai alla fine del tuo braccio. Remember, if you need a hand you'll find it at the end of your arm.
Audrey Hepburn
A woman can be beautiful as well as intellectual.
Audrey Hepburn
