Other women looked on me as a rival. And it pained me a great deal.
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.

I do isometrics in church so while I'm doing my soul some good, I'm doing my body some good, too.
Grace Kelly

I’ve always treated my children as beings in their own right. I respect their feelings and aspirations entirely.

The freedom of the press works in such a way that there is not much freedom from it.
Grace Kelly

I never say 'never,' and I never say 'always.'

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.
