More quotes by Hedy Lamarr
To be a star is to own the world and all the people in it. After a taste of stardom, everything else is poverty.
Hedy Lamarr
Films have a certain place in a certain time period. Technology is forever.
Hedy Lamarr
One of my favorite people is Gypsy Rose Lee. She bears out the Biblical promise that he who has, gets. And I hope she gets a lot more.
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
Many people are target people. Once when Louis B. Mayer insulted me I poured a glass of water over his head.
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
When I attained a certain advanced intimacy with a man, and I don't just mean sex, I married him.
Hedy Lamarr
I've met the most interesting people while flying or on a boat. These methods of travel seem to attract the kind of people I want to be with.
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 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
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
Because you don't live near a bakery doesn't mean you have to go without cheesecake.
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
Would you believe I was a famous star? It's the truth.
Hedy Lamarr
I still look good, though.
Hedy Lamarr
I was in constant demand, in my professional life and my personal life.
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
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
Hope & curiosity about the future seemed better than guarantees. The unknown was always so attractive to me...and still is.
