Lauren Bacall
Losing Bogey was horrible, obviously. Because he was young. And because he gave me my life. I wouldn't have had a - I don't know what would have happened to me if I hadn't met him. I would have had a completely different kind of life. He changed me, he gave me everything. And he was an extraordinary man.

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
How in hell can you handle love without turning your life upside down? That's what love does, it changes everything.
Lauren Bacall
The best things in life are clean living, good works, and big saphires. And not in that order.
Lauren Bacall
I figure if I have my health, can pay the rent and I have my friends, I call it 'content.'
Lauren Bacall
Always I'm feeling, 'You're never going to work again.' That's going to happen one day, but I hope I'm not alive.
Lauren Bacall
His (Frank Sinatra) attention span was not long, shall we say.
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
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
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
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.
