More quotes by Audrey Hepburn
When you have nobody you can make a cup of tea for, when nobody needs you, that's when I think life is over.
Audrey Hepburn
If you lead a simple life, and that story is written, then that story will not satisfy. It needs an angle. Suppose there is no angle?
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
As a child, I was taught that it was bad manners to bring attention to yourself, and to never, ever make a spectacle of yourself ... All of which I've earned a living doing.
Audrey Hepburn
You mustnt give your heart to a wild thing. The more you do, the stronger they get.
Audrey Hepburn
Paris is always a good idea.
Audrey Hepburn
I tried always to do better: saw always a little further. I tried to stretch myself.
Audrey Hepburn
I've always had- how shall I say it? -the prize at the end. My whole life shows that.
Audrey Hepburn
I never expected to be a star, never counted on it, never even wanted it. Not that I didn't enjoy it all when it happened.
Audrey Hepburn
Can I have a silk nightgown with rosebuds on it?
Audrey Hepburn
Ive had my share of difficult moments, but whatever difficulties Ive gone through, Ive always gotten a prize at the end.
Audrey Hepburn
Elegance is the only beauty that never fades.
Audrey Hepburn
Who thinks you're as fantastic as your dog does?
Audrey Hepburn
I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.
Audrey Hepburn
For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
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
I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.
Audrey Hepburn
I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.
Audrey Hepburn
A child is a child in any country, whatever the politics. Let's get down to basics. That's what a child forces you to do. Nothing else much matters, there is no complicated diplomacy, when a child is starving. It's simple. And we'd better do something about it. For our sakes, too. That is, if we want to continue to call ourselves human.
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
