More quotes by Grace Kelly

Image
I loved acting. I didn’t particularly like being a movie star.
Grace Kelly
Image
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
Image
Anger and anger can not solve any problem.
Grace Kelly
Image
Why getting angry? Getting angry doesn’t solve anything… I don’t like yelling and fighting and I can’t quarrel, I prefer to let it drop… When people use disagreeable words, I feel crushed and remember them for a long time.
Grace Kelly
Image
My parents, despite their serious attitude toward life in general, and that of their children in particular, were very broadminded people. There was no such thing as a bad profession for them. As I was their daughter, they knew that, whatever profession I chose, I would do it well. That was enough for them. There was always trust among the Kellys.

For a woman, forty is torture, the end.

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.

Image
I don`t want to dress up a picture with just my face.
Grace Kelly
Image
I never say 'never,' and I never say 'always.'
Grace Kelly
Image
I do isometrics in church so while I'm doing my soul some good, I'm doing my body some good, too.
Grace Kelly
Image
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
Image
I’ve always treated my children as beings in their own right. I respect their feelings and aspirations entirely.
Grace Kelly
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I don't want to be married to someone who feels inferior to my success or because I make more money than he does.
Grace Kelly
Image
I don't like yelling and fighting, and I can't quarrel.
Grace Kelly
Image
A person has to keep something to herself or you're life is just a layout in a magazine.
Grace Kelly
Image
I get up at seven for the make-up, Rita Hayworth at six, Joan Crawford and Bette Davis at five. I don’t want to know the time when I’ll have to come to the studio even earlier.
