More quotes by Hedy Lamarr
American men, as a group, seem to be interested in only two things, money and breasts. It seems a very narrow outlook.
Hedy Lamarr
When I attained a certain advanced intimacy with a man, and I don't just mean sex, I married him.
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
Hope & curiosity about the future seemed better than guarantees. The unknown was always so attractive to me...and still is.
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 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
Mr. DeMille's theory of sexual difference was that marriage is an artificial state for women. The want to be taken, ruled, raped. That was his theory.
Hedy Lamarr
I'm fifty-one years old, but I'm not through yet. I have lived a full life, and intend packing in quite a lot more.
Hedy Lamarr
All a woman needs is a good bath, clean clothes, and for her hair to be combed. These things she can do herself. I very seldom go to the hairdresser, but when I do, I just marvel.
Hedy Lamarr
The ceremony took six minutes. The marriage lasted about the same amount of time though we didn't get a divorce for almost a year.
Hedy Lamarr
Every girl would like to marry a rich husband. I did twice. But what divides girls into two groups is this question - do you first think of money and then love, or vice versa?
Hedy Lamarr
I advise everybody not to save: spend your money. Most people save all their lives and leave it to somebody else. Money is to be enjoyed.
Hedy Lamarr
Many people are target people. Once when Louis B. Mayer insulted me I poured a glass of water over his head.
Hedy Lamarr
I don't have any gnawing guilt over contributing to any unhappiness suffered by my husbands. They were as much to blame as I was.
Hedy Lamarr
Confidence is something you're born with. I know I had loads of it even at the age of 15.
Hedy Lamarr
Dates with actors, finally, just seemed to me evenings of shop talk. I got sick of it after a hile. So the more famous I became, the more I narrowed down my choices.
Hedy Lamarr
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
If you use your imagination, you can look at any actress and see her nude... I hope to make you use your imagination.
Hedy Lamarr
I win because I learned years ago that scared money always loses. I never care, so I win.
Hedy Lamarr
All my six husbands married me for different reasons.
