To be happy--one must find one's bliss
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 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
I do take very good care of myself, and I'm always in love. And by that I mean I have an appetite for life. I'm in love with beauty and things and people and love and being in love, and those things I think, on the inside, show on the outside.

Gloria Vanderbilt
You must always have great, secret, big fat hopes for yourself in love and in life. The bigger, the better.
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
You breathe in and out you breathe in and you breathe out, and you live one moment into the next moment, and then time goes by, and you find you're able to put one foot in front of the other.
Gloria Vanderbilt
Art brings a message into a room. It should make us perceive in a new way - either through color, form or narrative content - something we had not perceived before... and perhaps reveal something to you about yourself.
Gloria Vanderbilt
I was born during an eclipse. I believe very much in astrology. If you were born on an eclipse it indicates your destiny is chaotic.
Gloria Vanderbilt
Some of us are born with a sense of loss. It is not acquired as we grow. It is already there from the beginning, and it pervades us throughout our lives.
Gloria Vanderbilt
Nobody should get married at 17.
Gloria Vanderbilt
To be pregnant has been for me each time the supreme joy ... I was doing the greatest thing in the world without having to do anything -- all I had to do was be.
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.
Gloria Vanderbilt
The fame you earn has a different taste from the fame that is forced upon you
Gloria Vanderbilt
And it came to me, and I knew what I had to have before my soul would rest. I wanted to belong - to belong to my mother. And in return - I wanted my mother to belong to me.
Gloria Vanderbilt
