More quotes by Audrey Hepburn
Laughing is the best calorie burner.
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
To have beautiful lips, say beautiful things. To have beautiful eyes, look at people and see the good in them.
Audrey Hepburn
Paris is always a good idea.
Audrey Hepburn
No. The blues are because you're getting fat and maybe it's been raining too long, you're just sad that's all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you're afraid and you don't know what you're afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling?
Audrey Hepburn
I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.
Audrey Hepburn
...walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.
Audrey Hepburn
Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book, and remembering - because you can't take it in all at once.
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

Audrey Hepburn
Promise me one thing: don't take me home until I'm drunk - very drunk indeed.
Audrey Hepburn
Can I have a silk nightgown with rosebuds on it?
Audrey Hepburn
There are more important things than outward appearance. No amount of makeup can cover an ugly personality.
Audrey Hepburn
For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
Audrey Hepburn
People associate me with a time when movies were pleasant, when women wore pretty dresses in films and you heard beautiful music. I always love it when people write me and and say 'I was having a rotten time, and I walked into a cinema and saw one of your movies, and it made such a difference.'
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 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
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
Audrey Hepburn
For entertainment, a party bears no one in as much as those who are not there.
Audrey Hepburn
When I wear a silk scarf I never feel so definitely like a woman, a beautiful woman
