I remember most clearly when a teenage Christopher spat in my face. He said, I hate you. It's pretty hard to overlook that. I couldn't.
Joan Crawford
I absolutely will not allow anyone to call me grandmother. They can call me Auntie Joan, Dee-Dee, Cho-Cho, anything but grandmother. It pushes a woman almost to the grave.
Joan Crawford
While making Possessed, I wept each morning on my drive to the studio, and I wept all the way back home. I found it impossible to sleep at night, so I'd lie in bed contemplating the future. I fear it with all my heart and soul even as I fear the dark.
Joan Crawford
Mr. Cukor is a hard task-master, a fine director and he took me over the coals giving me the roughest time I have ever had. And I am eternally grateful.
Joan Crawford
I used to wash my hands every ten minutes. I couldn't step out of the house unless I had gloves on. I wouldn't smoke a cigarette unless I opened the pack myself, and I would never use another cigarette out of that pack if someone else had touched it.
Joan Crawford
Sensitive husbands don't like second billing. I don't believe Franchot ever for a moment resented the fact that I was a star. Possibly he resented Hollywood's refusal to let him forget it. There was never a doubt in my mind that his talent was greater than mine.
Joan Crawford
You have to be self-reliant and strong to survive in this town. Otherwise you will be destroyed.

Joan Crawford
There's nothing wrong with my tits, but I don't go around throwing them in people's faces!
Joan Crawford
Nobody can imitate me. You can always see impersonations of Katharine Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. But not me. Because I've always drawn on myself only.
Joan Crawford
If you throw a lamb chop in the oven, what's to keep it from getting done?
Joan Crawford
Not that anyone cares, but there's a right and wrong way to clean a house.
Joan Crawford
I'd like to think every director I've worked with has fallen in love with me, I know Dorothy Arzner did.
Joan Crawford
Box-office poison? Mr. Louis B. Mayer always asserted that the studio had built Stage 22, Stage 24 and the Irving Thalberg Building, brick by brick, from the income on my pictures.
Joan Crawford
I had always known what I wanted, and that was beauty... in every form... a beautiful house, beautiful man, a beautiful life and image. I was ambitious to get the money which would attain all that for me.
Joan Crawford
Of all the actresses ... to me, only Faye Dunaway has the talent and the class and the courage it takes to make a real star.
Joan Crawford
I was born in front of a camera and really don't know anything else
