More quotes by Grace Kelly
Although I’ve played a wide variety of roles, I’ve never had the chance to act in a story written specially for me. It’s a pity as they are the only stories that really let you reveal your personality.
Grace Kelly
For a woman, forty is torture, the end.
Grace Kelly
I never say 'never,' and I never say 'always.'
Grace Kelly
I don't like yelling and fighting, and I can't quarrel.
Grace Kelly
At times I think I actually hate Hollywood. I have many acquaintances there, but few friends.
Grace Kelly
Having a [teenage] daughter is like riding a young horse over an unknown steeplechase course. You don't know when to pull up the reins, when to let the horse have its head - or what.
Grace Kelly
I love walking in the woods, on the trails, along the beaches. I love being part of nature. I love walking alone. It is therapy. One needs to be alone, to recharge one's batteries.
Grace Kelly
Hollywood amuses me. Holier-than-thou for the public and unholier-than-the-devil in reality
Grace Kelly
I hated Hollywood. It’s a town without pity. Only success counts. I know of no other place in the world where so many people suffer from nervous breakdowns, where there are so many alcoholics, neurotics and so much unhappiness.
Grace Kelly
I do isometrics in church so while I'm doing my soul some good, I'm doing my body some good, too.
Grace Kelly
A person has to keep something to herself or you're life is just a layout in a magazine.
Grace Kelly
Before my marriage, I didn’t think about all the obligations that were awaiting me. My experience has proved useful and I think that I have a natural propensity to feel compassion for people and their problems.
Grace Kelly
If there is one thing that is foreign to me it is shopping for pleasure. On the other hand, I believe that it is right to honor all those who create beautiful things and give satisfaction to those who see me wearing them.
Grace Kelly
I've been accused of being cold, snobbish, distant. Those who know me well know that I’m nothing of the sort. If anything, the opposite is true. But is it too much to ask to want to protect your private life, your inner feelings? Lots of things touch me and I don’t want to be indiscreet.
Grace Kelly
My real difficulty was to become a normal person again, after having been a movie actress for so long. For me, at the time I was living in New York and Hollywood, a normal person was someone who made movies.
Grace Kelly
Emancipation of women has made them lose their mystery.
Grace Kelly
I am basically a feminist. I think that women can do anything they decide to do.
Grace Kelly
Other women looked on me as a rival. And it pained me a great deal.
Grace Kelly
When I married Prince Rainier, I married the man and not what he represented or what he was. I fell in love with him without giving a thought to anything else.
Grace Kelly
I was hired to be an actress, not a personality for the press.
