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.

More quotes by Grace Kelly
I loved acting. I didn’t particularly like being a movie star.
Grace Kelly
This is one night I wish I smoked and drank.
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 don't like yelling and fighting, and I can't quarrel.
Grace Kelly
I’ve always treated my children as beings in their own right. I respect their feelings and aspirations entirely.
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
Other women looked on me as a rival. And it pained me a great deal.
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
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
Anger and anger can not solve any problem.
Grace Kelly
I was hired to be an actress, not a personality for the press.
Grace Kelly
A person has to keep something to herself or you're life is just a layout in a magazine.
Grace Kelly
A woman needs ropes and ropes of pearls.
Grace Kelly
Hollywood amuses me. Holier-than-thou for the public and unholier-than-the-devil in reality
Grace Kelly
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.
Grace Kelly
For a woman, forty is torture, the end.
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
If anybody starts using me as scenery, I'll return to New York.
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
Emancipation of women has made them lose their mystery.
Grace Kelly
