The body is like a car: the older you become the more care you have to take care of it - and you don't leave a Ferrari out in the sun.

More quotes by Joan Collins
But I have had to give up certain things in my life. One is shopping. Two is lunch with the girls. Three is cocktail parties, and four is studying my lines.
Joan Collins
I think, Larry, one of the things is I'm a very active person.
Joan Collins
I received an OBE from the Queen, which probably doesn't mean anything in America but is quite nice in England - the Order of the British Empire for services to drama.
Joan Collins
I've said no to 'Celebrity Big Brother,' 'Strictly,' and the American one, 'Dancing With The Stars.' I don't feel it's right for me. I've been asked to do reality TV a zillion times. No way. No way. Nobody's going to get into my living room and see me there.
Joan Collins
I have girlfriends who've had Botox and been left with lumps in their faces. And the lips, don't even get me started.
Joan Collins
Every woman should wear make-up. It takes years off. I'm wearing lots of false eyelashes today, and to me, lipstick is the best cosmetic that exists.
Joan Collins
I never thought I was particularly good looking. But when I see old photographs, I realise that I was. I do wish I had known that at the time because beauty is power. I didn't realise how lucky I was to be young, beautiful and in Hollywood. It didn't hit me. Every day I woke up, went to the film studio and just got on with it.
Joan Collins
I've always maintained that there is a very fine line between a daring, sexy older woman and mutton dressed as lamb.
Joan Collins
I was voted the most beautiful girl in the world in 1958, and courted by every young, available man in Los Angeles, most of whom I didn't go out with, by the way.
Joan Collins
What is so weird is that young people who want to be 'celebrities' do not want to put in the hard work. They don't want to do the training, go to drama school, read Shakespeare, try different accents and study technique. They just want to be famous. It is not just in England it's the same in America and all over Europe.
Joan Collins
The secret of having a personal life is not answering too many questions about it.
Joan Collins
Love may be a dream but marriage is a nightmare.
Joan Collins
I've three children, three grandchildren, I work, I travel, and I'm very happily married. I'm very satisfied and happy with my life and there really isn't anything I want.
Joan Collins
And I think of that again as I've written in several of my beauty books, a lot of health comes from the proper eating habits, which are something that - you know, I come from a generation that wasn't - didn't have a lot of food.
Joan Collins
And then I wrote my first autobiography when I - well, it was 23 years ago. And since then I've written about one book every two years.
Joan Collins
Isn't three quarters of life a guilty pleasure?
Joan Collins
Yes, I love playing cartoony characters. Been known for that.
Joan Collins
One of the rules about being an actor or an actress is that you never diss other actors or actresses, particularly when you don't know them.
Joan Collins
The problem with beauty is that it's like being born rich and getting poorer.
Joan Collins
Certainly there are dozens of over-50 actresses who look great: Sophia Loren, Susan Sarandon, Ursula Andress, Stefanie Powers, Raquel Welch, Barbara Eden, Joanna Lumley, Linda Gray - the list is endless, and these are just the actresses! I have many friends in their 60s, 70s and 80s, not in the limelight, but who all look absolutely stunning.
