More quotes by Lauren Bacall
Acting is a life of rejection.
Lauren Bacall
How in hell can you handle love without turning your life upside down? That's what love does, it changes everything.
Lauren Bacall
I don't think being the only child of a single parent helped. I was always a little unsteady in my self-belief. Then there was the Jewish thing. I love being Jewish, I have no problem with it at all. But it did become like a scar, with all these people saying you don't look it.
Lauren Bacall
I've always felt that work - learning from people who know more than I know - is what keeps you going.
Lauren Bacall
The first time anything happens to you - your first love, your first success - the second one is never the same.
Lauren Bacall
About working with Marilyn Monroe.We got along very well. My only complaint about her was that she was late all the time, but she was late out of fear as much as anything else, but it was hard to sit around and wait. She was usually an hour or two late every morning.
Lauren Bacall
Growing up takes longer than you think.
Lauren Bacall
I always brought up my children not to believe in Mothers Day gifts, and now I regret it.
Lauren Bacall
One thing I am convinced of is that the more you do, the more you can do.
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
Men need to feel important. They feel better when they're with younger girls or unknown girls.
Lauren Bacall
It's not an old movie if you haven't seen it.
Lauren Bacall
The madmen seem to live on forever, don't they?
Lauren Bacall
After the age of 30 in the movie profession, you're pretty well over as far as the casting people are concerned.
Lauren Bacall
They think actors are freaks - that we're a lot of drunks who party all the time and never work. Well, I for one work my tail off.
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
The times in which we're currently living unfortunately, our great leader [George W. Bush] is such a disaster and the entire country is in disastrous shape because of him. It's very frightening, actually, to think that this country has become what it's become and that so many people voted for a man like that. It's terrifying.
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
People should tell your children what life is all about - it's about work.
Lauren Bacall
I am not a wealthy woman. I wish to hell I was, but I never had a wealthy man.
Lauren Bacall
