More quotes by Lauren Bacall
I'll miss Hollywood. Of the twenty friends I thought I had, I'll miss the six I really had.
Lauren Bacall

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
Each time a friend dies, the present becomes the past, in an instant.
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

Lauren Bacall
No one has ever written a romance better than we lived it.
Lauren Bacall

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
You can't start worrying about what's going to happen. You get spastic enough worrying about what's happening now.
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
Life is not what you expected it to be.
Lauren Bacall
If goodness is its own reward, shouldn't we get a little something for being naughty?
Lauren Bacall
I wish Frank Sinatra would just shut up and sing.
Lauren Bacall
