More quotes by 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.

Gardening is the greatest tonic and therapy a human being can have. Even if you have only a tiny piece of earth, you can create something beautiful, which we all have a great need for. If we begin by respecting plants, it's inevitable we'll respect people.

Audrey Hepburn
Pick the day. Enjoy it– to the hilt.
Audrey Hepburn
I can testify to what UNICEF means to children, because I was among those who received food and medical relief right after World War II.
Audrey Hepburn
Make-up can only make you look pretty on the outside but it doesn't help if your ugly on the inside. Unless you eat the make-up.
Audrey Hepburn
A quality education has the power to transform societies in a single generation, provide children with the protection they need from the hazards of poverty, labor exploitation and disease, and given them the knowledge, skills, and confidence to reach their full potential.
Audrey Hepburn
Good things aren't supposed to just fall into your lap. God is very generous, but He expects you to do your part first.
Audrey Hepburn
I tried always to do better: saw always a little further. I tried to stretch myself.
Audrey Hepburn
I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it.
Audrey Hepburn
Some people dream of having a big swimming pool. With me, it’s closets
Audrey Hepburn
