More quotes by Jackie Collins
Where was Paris Hilton a year ago? She's a fabulous character to write about.
Jackie Collins
Love does not appear with any warning signs. You fall into it as if pushed from a high diving board.
Jackie Collins
People are intrigued by fame, power and wealth and I think Hollywood is the only place where you get all three together.
Jackie Collins
I have this theory that people in Hollywood don't read. They read 'Vanity Fair' and then consider themselves terribly well read. I think I can basically write about anybody without getting caught.
Jackie Collins
Your whole life is ahead of you. Don't you ever forget that.
Jackie Collins
Ideas are all around me. If I wasn't interested in them myself, I don't think anyone else would be either.

Jackie Collins
I try not to bore my readers.
Jackie Collins
If you wrote a page a day, at the end of the year you would have a book. Whether it's any good or not is beside the point, but you would have a book, instead of just talking about it all the time.
Jackie Collins
I write synopses after the book is completed. I can't write it beforehand, because I don't know what the book's about. I invent something for my publisher because he asks for one, but the final book ends up very differently.
Jackie Collins
As soon as I reach my destination I have a cup of tea, something to eat and then sleep for about 13 hours. I make that an absolute rule and I always feel fresh afterwards and never have jet lag.
Jackie Collins
The biggest critics of my books are the people who never read them.
Jackie Collins
My biggest critics have never read me.
Jackie Collins
I like to design my clothes I design my jewelry, yeah. It's fun.
