I don't fear death because I don't fear anything I don't understand. When I start to think about it, I order a massage and it goes away.
Hedy Lamarr
American men, as a group, seem to be interested in only two things, money and breasts. It seems a very narrow outlook.

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 still look good, though.
Hedy Lamarr

Hedy Lamarr
Most children turn out badly because they have the wrong parental image. This doesn't mean their parents are criminal. It means they are boring and cruel.
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
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
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
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
Many people are target people. Once when Louis B. Mayer insulted me I poured a glass of water over his head.
Hedy Lamarr
I believe in sending a lot of letters and notes to friends.
