More quotes by Lauren Bacall
It's not an old movie if you haven't seen it.
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
There are guys who want to screw around all the time, which interests me not at all. God knows we've done that, been there, and we don't want to do that any more.
Lauren Bacall
You realize yourself when you start reflecting - because I don't live in the past, although your past is so much a part of what you are - that you can't ignore it. But I don't look at scrapbooks.
Lauren Bacall
I think your whole life shows in your face and you should be proud of that.
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
All actors are terrified - they just learn how to control it.
Lauren Bacall
The best things in life are clean living, good works, and big saphires. And not in that order.
Lauren Bacall
One thing I am convinced of is that the more you do, the more you can do.
Lauren Bacall
I've always felt that work - learning from people who know more than I know - is what keeps you going.
Lauren Bacall
Generally women are better than men -- they have more character. I prefer men for some things, obviously, but women have a greater sense of honor and are more willing to take a chance with their lives.
Lauren Bacall
Acting is a life of rejection.
Lauren Bacall
Actors today go into TV, which I don't consider has a lot to do with acting. They only think of stardom. If you photograph well, that's enough. I have a terrible time distinguishing one from another. Girls wear their hair the same, and are much too anorexic-looking.
Lauren Bacall
Remember what Bogie and my mother both used to say: 'Character is the most important thing. All that matters is character!'
Lauren Bacall
No one has ever written a romance better than we lived it.
Lauren Bacall
The purity of Jewish upbringing - the restrictions that one carries through life being a 'nice Jewish girl' - what a burden.
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
Life is not what you expected it to be.
Lauren Bacall
When you talk about a great actor, you're not talking about Tom Cruise. His whole behavior is so shocking. It's inappropriate and vulgar and absolutely unacceptable to use your private life to sell anything commercially, but I think it's kind of a sickness.
Lauren Bacall
You learn to cope with whatever you have to cope with. I spent my childhood in New York, riding on subways and buses. And you know what you learn if you're a New Yorker? The world doesn't owe you a damn thing.
Lauren Bacall
