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.

More quotes by Joan Crawford
I was born in front of a camera and really don't know anything else
Joan Crawford
Life deals from the bottom, sometimes, doesn't it?
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
Not that anyone cares, but there's a right and wrong way to clean a house.
Joan Crawford
Sure, I'd play an ape if they asked me. Maurice Evans did.
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
all that time hanging around the sets, watching Norma Shearer make the most of her three expressions, was a help.
Joan Crawford
Care for your clothes, like the good friends they are
Joan Crawford
You have to be self-reliant and strong to survive in this town. Otherwise you will be destroyed.
Joan Crawford
1. Find your own style and have the courage to stick to it. 2. Choose your clothes for your way of life. 3. Make your wardrobe as versatile as an actress. It should be able to play many roles. 4. Find your happiest colours - the ones that make you feel good. 5. Care for your clothes, like the good friends they are!
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
Well, we can skip childhood because I didn't have any. Not one goddam moment on the Good Ship Lollipop.
Joan Crawford
Be afraid of nothing.
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
There's nothing wrong with my tits, but I don't go around throwing them in people's faces!
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
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
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
[To the mother of two unruly children in a restaurant after the woman said she really didn't know what to do with her children:] Have you tried infanticide?
Joan Crawford
