More quotes by 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.
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
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 was in constant demand, in my professional life and my personal life.
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

Hedy Lamarr
Would you believe I was a famous star? It's the truth.
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
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 win because I learned years ago that scared money always loses. I never care, so I win.
Hedy Lamarr
Films have a certain place in a certain time period. Technology is forever.
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
I still look good, though.
Hedy Lamarr
I have never liked bargains when it came to sex.
Hedy Lamarr
Hope & curiosity about the future seemed better than guarantees. The unknown was always so attractive to me...and still is.
Hedy Lamarr
Lawyers know how to take isolated complaints in a divorce case and build them into one big one.
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
