More quotes by Lauren Bacall
The first time anything happens to you - your first love, your first success - the second one is never the same.
Lauren Bacall
No, I'm afraid they might slip and hit a nerve and I'd end up with one side of my face hanging down or something. I'll just stick with this one for a while and take my chances. I'll be brave.
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
I am not a has-been. I am a will-be.
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 remember my oldest son, Steve, saying to me once, 'I don't ever remember seeing you with an apron on.' And I thought, that's right, honey, you did not. That was his concept of what a mother should be.

Lauren Bacall
His (Frank Sinatra) attention span was not long, shall we say.
Lauren Bacall

Lauren Bacall
I am essentially a loner.
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
God if the press ever quoted anyone correctly it would be brilliant.
Lauren Bacall
I've always felt that work - learning from people who know more than I know - is what keeps you going.
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
I'm total, total, total liberal and proud of it.
Lauren Bacall
When you are playing a part like that where you have traveled - you begin to think, God what a great life. Independent, living alone and how dramatic.
Lauren Bacall
You spend a good part of your adult life acquiring things: building a home, filling it with objects that please your eye and make you feel comfortable. Then you spend the last part of your life trying to figure out how to get rid of it all.
Lauren Bacall
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
