More quotes by Lauren Bacall
I'm not a sedentary person. I've always been active.
Lauren Bacall
I wish Frank Sinatra would just shut up and sing.
Lauren Bacall
The purity of Jewish upbringing - the restrictions that one carries through life being a 'nice Jewish girl' - what a burden.
Lauren Bacall
Each time a friend dies, the present becomes the past, in an instant.
Lauren Bacall
When you talk about a great actor, you're not talking about Tom Cruise. His whole behavior is so shocking.
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
Remember what Bogie and my mother both used to say: 'Character is the most important thing. All that matters is character!'
Lauren Bacall
A woman isn't complete without a man. But where do you find a man - a real man - these days?
Lauren Bacall
The best things in life are clean living, good works, and big saphires. And not in that order.
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 am essentially a loner.
Lauren Bacall
I'm total, total, total liberal and proud of 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
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
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
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
Naïveté, thy name is me.
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
Legends are all to do with the past and nothing to do with the present.
Lauren Bacall
Men need to feel important. They feel better when they're with younger girls or unknown girls.
Lauren Bacall
