More quotes by Lauren Bacall
I would hate now to be married. It does occur to me on occasion that, if I fall and hit my head, there will be no one to make the phone call. But who wants to think about that disaster, I'd prefer not to.
Lauren Bacall
I'm total, total, total liberal and proud of it.
Lauren Bacall
Well, the people I've known I must say are extraordinary. When I think about some of them, I can't believe that I knew them all. And I think the reason I knew most of them at the beginning was because they were of Bogie's generation, 25 years my senior, not mine. But they were the most talented people of all.
Lauren Bacall
the real stakes in the theater are high - they are life stakes. That's what I love about it. You gamble with your life, and that's a gamble worth taking.
Lauren Bacall
Always I'm feeling, 'You're never going to work again.' That's going to happen one day, but I hope I'm not alive.
Lauren Bacall
If there was a pause in a conversation with anyone, you could always light a cigarette, or if a man lit a cigarette for you, you could look up. It's the most dramatic thing in the world because it's intimate, it's suggestive, and that's one of the problems with giving it up, is that it's a very useful tool.
Lauren Bacall
Imagination is the highest kite one can fly.
Lauren Bacall
The madmen seem to live on forever, don't they?
Lauren Bacall
One thing I am convinced of is that the more you do, the more you can do.
Lauren Bacall
I had a lot of frustrations about my career. A lot of, you know, times where I felt I should've been considered for a part that I wasn't considered for.
Lauren Bacall
As long as I can walk and talk, I'll try almost anything. I say almost because the high wire is definitely out.
Lauren Bacall
All actors are terrified - they just learn how to control it.
Lauren Bacall
I'm crazy enough to believe in taking chances in every way, in making choices and gambling with your life. That's the kind of gambling I believe in.
Lauren Bacall
Growing up takes longer than you think.
Lauren Bacall
I'm a total Democrat. I'm anti-Republican. And it's only fair that you know it... I'm liberal. The L word!
Lauren Bacall
If goodness is its own reward, shouldn't we get a little something for being naughty?
Lauren Bacall
I'm not a sedentary person. I've always been active.
Lauren Bacall
Being a liberal is the best thing on earth you can be. You are welcoming to everyone when you're a liberal. You do not have a small mind.
Lauren Bacall
I wish Frank Sinatra would just shut up and sing.
Lauren Bacall
I called my business manager in California and said, 'Sell all of my stock' - what little of it I had - and it's the only smart financial move I ever made.
