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
Your luck is how you treat people.
Bette Davis
Technicolor makes me look like death warmed over.
Bette Davis
I'm the nicest goddamn dame that ever lived.
Bette Davis
