More quotes by Gloria Vanderbilt

Gloria Vanderbilt
The minute that you bring a unicorn into a story, you know that it's a fairy tale or a fable, because unicorns don't exist as animals. They exist as fantasy creatures.
Gloria Vanderbilt

Gloria Vanderbilt
Nobody should get married at 17.
Gloria Vanderbilt
If you've never had a mother or a father, you grow up seeking something you're never going to find, ever. You seek it in love and in people and in beauty.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I'm the girliest girl you are ever going to meet.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I don't read anything about myself. As a child, there was something in me that was just instinctive. I want to be clear in my spirit, and I don't want to be blocked by things that get inside of you and kill you.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I was fearless. Wild horses couldn't stop me.

When I'm traveling to promote my book, I feel like an artful impostor. What I really am is when I'm in my (painter's) studio and when I'm writing. With actors, it's the same thing. They're kind of artful impostors in public. When you get to know them, they're different people.
Gloria Vanderbilt
There's a saying I read recently I painted it on the fireplace and in my studio: Be kind to everyone you meet, for everyone is fighting a great battle. We all are. Everyone.
Gloria Vanderbilt
When I was being photographed, I always felt very much in my own skin. That's probably one of the reasons why I enjoy being photographed.
Gloria Vanderbilt

Gloria Vanderbilt
I do spend money. I like to spend money, on houses - on furnishing houses. And I love to give presents to people. It's just in my nature to be that way. I always spent money I had. And I always spent what I made. I'm not stingy.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I do think all art is autobiographical, and I do think I know quite a bit about women. I don't know anything about men.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I've been really very fortunate with the men I've been involved with. They've always really treated me very, very wonderfully. And whenever anything broke up, I was always the one to leave. So I think I've been really very, very lucky.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I've had many, many loves. I always feel that something wonderful is going to happen. And it always does.
Gloria Vanderbilt
In mythology and palmistry, the left hand is called the dreamer because the ring finger on the left hand leads directly to the heart. I find it a very poetic idea. And thats why I only wear nail polish on my left ring finger.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I'll always remain friends with men I've been in love with. Each one gave me so much, in so many ways.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I'm always in love. If it's not with a man, it's something else. I love beauty. I love the sky I see outside the window. There's so much beauty in the world.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I've resolved so many things in my life. I like the idea of showing that you can go through a lot and still be on your feet, still be working, and still be positive about life.
