More quotes by Bette Davis

Bette Davis
One begins to realize that one is getting old when the birthday candles weigh more than the cake.
Bette Davis
Today everyone is a star - they're all billed as 'starring' or 'also starring'. In my day, we earned that recognition.
Bette Davis

Women are the essential part of the theater but the writers are not writing about women. I think they're too perplexed about the whole female situation probably.
Bette Davis

Bette Davis
I have been at war from the beginning. I've never looked back before. I've never had the time and it has always seemed so dangerous. To look back is to relax one's vigil.
Bette Davis
It is my last wish to be burried sitting up.
Bette Davis
At 50, I thought proudly: Here we are, half century! Being 60 was fairly frightening. You want to know how I spent my 70th birthday? I put on a completely black face, a fuzzy black Afro wig, wore black clothes and hung a black wreath on my door.
Bette Davis
I've always liked men better than women.
Bette Davis
Old age ain't for sissies
