More quotes by Lauren Bacall
Growing up takes longer than you think.
Lauren Bacall
Life is not what you expected it to be.
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
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
When you talk about a great actor, you're not talking about Tom Cruise. His whole behavior is so shocking.
Lauren Bacall
I am not a has-been. I am a will-be.
Lauren Bacall
Legends are all to do with the past and nothing to do with the present.
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
You can't start worrying about what's going to happen. You get spastic enough worrying about what's happening now.
Lauren Bacall
The madmen seem to live on forever, don't they?
Lauren Bacall
I'll miss Hollywood. Of the twenty friends I thought I had, I'll miss the six I really had.
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
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
I'm not a sedentary person. I've always been active.
Lauren Bacall
I've still not gotten my choice of the best roles in the world.
Lauren Bacall
Isn't hope an incredible, a wonderfully demented thing?
Lauren Bacall
I never believed marriage was a lasting institution . . . I thought that to be married for five years was to be married forever.
Lauren Bacall
Acting is a life of rejection.
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
How in hell can you handle love without turning your life upside down? That's what love does, it changes everything.
Lauren Bacall
