If I had my way everyone would have a psychiatrist. When the brain is sick and you must throw up, you do it by being purged in a psychiatrist's office.
Hedy Lamarr
Lawyers know how to take isolated complaints in a divorce case and build them into one big one.
Hedy Lamarr
I would tell anyone who wants something from someone else to feign not wanting it. People are perverse. If you show great affection to them, they'll run the other way.

Because you don't live near a bakery doesn't mean you have to go without cheesecake.
Hedy Lamarr
Perhaps my problem in marriage-and it is the problem of many women-was to want both intimacy and independence. It is a difficult line to walk, yet both needs are important to a marriage.

Hedy Lamarr
It's funny about men and women. Men pay in cash to get them and pay in cash to get rid of them. Women pay emotionally coming and going. Neither has it easy.
Hedy Lamarr

Hedy Lamarr
Confidence is something you're born with. I know I had loads of it even at the age of 15.
Hedy Lamarr
Dirt makes a man look masculine. Let your hair blow in the wind, and all that. It's OK. All you have to do is look neat when you have to look neat.
Hedy Lamarr
I'd rather wear jewels in my hair than anywhere else. The face should have the advantage of this brilliance.
Hedy Lamarr
I am not ashamed to say that no man I ever met was my father's equal, and I never loved any other man as much.
Hedy Lamarr
The world isn't getting any easier. With all these new inventions I believe that people are hurried more and pushed more... The hurried way is not the right way you need time for everything - time to work, time to play, time to rest.
Hedy Lamarr
I was born an only child in Vienna, Austria. My father found hours to sit by me by the library fire and tell fairy stories.
Hedy Lamarr
All creative people want to do the unexpected.
Hedy Lamarr
I was in constant demand, in my professional life and my personal life.
Hedy Lamarr
I think women are concerned too much with their clothes. Men don't really care that much about women's clothes. If they like a girl, chances are they'll like her clothes.
Hedy Lamarr
I remember all too well the premiere of Ecstasy when I watched my bare bottom bounce across the screen and my mother and father sat there in shock.
Hedy Lamarr
I appreciate subtlety. I have never enjoyed a kiss in front of the camera. There's nothing to it except not getting your lipstick smeared.
