More quotes by Hedy Lamarr
When I attained a certain advanced intimacy with a man, and I don't just mean sex, I married him.
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
I'd rather wear jewels in my hair than anywhere else. The face should have the advantage of this brilliance.
Hedy Lamarr
I win because I learned years ago that scared money always loses. I never care, so I win.
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
All creative people want to do the unexpected.
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 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
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
Lawyers know how to take isolated complaints in a divorce case and build them into one big one.
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
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
Hope & curiosity about the future seemed better than guarantees. The unknown was always so attractive to me...and still is.
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
Films have a certain place in a certain time period. Technology is forever.
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
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
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
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 don't have any gnawing guilt over contributing to any unhappiness suffered by my husbands. They were as much to blame as I was.
