Lauren Bacall
I always brought up my children not to believe in Mothers Day gifts, and now I regret it.
Lauren Bacall
I'm total, total, total liberal and proud of it.
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.

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

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
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
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 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
After the age of 30 in the movie profession, you're pretty well over as far as the casting people are concerned.
Lauren Bacall
In the world of relationships, possibly the most complicated, uncommon, hard to find, hard to keep and most rewarding has got to be friendship.
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
The reason you get married is to be together, not to be separated.
Lauren Bacall
I had a lot of frustrations about my career. A lot of, you know, times where I felt I should've been considered for a part that I wasn't considered for.
Lauren Bacall
God if the press ever quoted anyone correctly it would be brilliant.
