More quotes by Joan Collins

I can't think of anything I would rather not - rather do than get up and not do anything. I have to do something. Whether it is painting, writing, acting, shopping, going to the gym, being with friends, going out - I just am a very active person. I have a lot of friends and I travel a lot.
Joan Collins
I've spent years when I've not been in the limelight at all and I'm perfectly happy living my life without being swooped on by paparazzi.
Joan Collins

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 mean, even my dressing room at the studio has candles and cushions and cashmere rugs and things.
Joan Collins
Yes, I love playing cartoony characters. Been known for that.
Joan Collins
I think it has something to do with being British. We don't take ourselves as seriously as some other countries do. I think a lot of people take themselves far too seriously I find that a very tedious attitude.
Joan Collins
I have a lot of male friends that I go the cinema with and movie and shopping. A lot of men friends I know love shopping.
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
Love may be a dream but marriage is a nightmare.
