More quotes by Britt Ekland
The ideal man doesn't exist. A husband is easier to find.
Britt Ekland
I was brought up very conservatively. My father was positively Victorian - I wasn't even allowed to wear my hair down.
Britt Ekland
Fame overcomes everything.
Britt Ekland
I will do my best to entertain. That's what I am: an entertainer.
Britt Ekland
I used to smoke cigarettes, ten a day, but gave up when I was 28. Now my vice is several cups of coffee a day, which isn't great if you're prone to weak bones as I am, as caffeine can leach calcium.
Britt Ekland
I've been doing Pilates since 1974, I lift weights, I power walk every day and I run backwards. That's sometimes a little hard when you're not on your home turf, because you've got to find a place where there are no bumps in the way - or people.
Britt Ekland
George Hamilton is one of the funniest men I have ever known.
Britt Ekland
There are so many young women who throw their talent away.
Britt Ekland
I'd been a housewife and mother to our son Thomas Jefferson, and I was looking for a new career. So when my agent called and said a producer named Paul Elliott from E&B productions, the biggest panto company in the country at the time, wanted to meet me I agreed.
Britt Ekland
I never really learned the value of money. My father didn't spoil me, but I think my grandparents did.
Britt Ekland
I had a husband who, I'm convinced, was an undiagnosed manic depressive. He didn't treat me as if I had a brain - I was just this beautiful little doll he could show off.
Britt Ekland
I broke my ankle ten years ago so high heels are not an option unless I'm literally going door to door for a function.
Britt Ekland
Generally, I'm a pretty positive, but like any other working person, if the jobs aren't coming in, I do get depressed.
Britt Ekland
I would teach U.K. parents how to stop their children throwing litter. London is a beautiful city but its streets are disgusting.
Britt Ekland
I used to collect vintage clothing - exquisite lace dresses, embroidered shawls and ornate jewelry - but that's just not me any more.
Britt Ekland
I spend hours mowing the lawn in absolutely straight lines on my tractor. If it's not right, I do it again.
Britt Ekland
Little bitty bags are completely impractical - I like big slouchy bags because they have to be comfortable for my lovely wee Chihuahua Tequila, who comes everywhere with me. I'm devoted to him, now my kids have long since flown the nest.
Britt Ekland
I was so beautiful but I didn't realise it for years. I saw pictures of myself and even I was stunned.
Britt Ekland
As for the stage fright, it never goes away. When I'm waiting in the wings to go on, it's agony every single time but I stay focused and I know that once I'm on stage it'll be fine I'll be in my happy little bubble.
Britt Ekland
I tried the Atkins diet in the Seventies when pregnant with my son, as I didn't want to pile on the pounds. Now, so long as I'm healthy, I don't care what my scales say.
