More quotes by 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
The problem with beauty is that it's like being born rich and getting poorer.
Joan Collins
And I kissed a lot of frogs as well, but no, I kissed a lot of frogs and now I've found my prince.
Joan Collins
I don't buy into you're on the slag heap when you're 40 or 50 or 60 or 70 or whatever.
Joan Collins
I think bare legs in winter are idiotic. Unless your naked pins are toned, tanned and veinless, it's best to cover up. There is nothing more elegant in winter than dark tights worn with matching knee-length boots and a belted trench coat.
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
I've always maintained that there is a very fine line between a daring, sexy older woman and mutton dressed as lamb.
Joan Collins
There are very few designers in Hollywood today who know how to really flatter a woman's body, and Mark Zunino is at the top of my list.
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
I've never chased fame. I came into this business to be a theatre actress. I was nine when I first appeared on stage. But I can't say I would turn my back on fortune. I'm someone who enjoys the benefits of money.
Joan Collins
When I was at school, I was terrible at algebra and arithmetic, but I was always the best at English and literature. And acting, of course.
Joan Collins
If life throws you a lemon - make lemonade.
Joan Collins
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.
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
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
Life is a predator: you have to eat it before it eats you.
Joan Collins
If I need to cheer myself up, I will put on some fabulous '40s musical on video. But I'm very lucky I seldom get depressed. Without question, I'm a 'glass half full' person. In fact, it's three-quarters full!
Joan Collins
Of course it's true: the public want to see young people - young people are the people who go to the cinema. It's a sad fact of life, but you've got to accept it and not whine about it.
Joan Collins
I was thinking, who of the English actresses in the last 30 or 40 years have achieved as much as I have?
Joan Collins
Well, it is quite daunting, but I made my first appearance on the stage when I was nine, because I went to a theatrical school, because I wanted to be an actress since I was eight.
