More quotes by Marlene Dietrich
When you prostitute yourself, you have to get paid for it.
Marlene Dietrich
I had no desire to be an film actress, to always play somebody else, to be always beautiful with somebody constantly straightening out your every eyelash. It was always a big bother to me.
Marlene Dietrich
I'm not an actress, I'm a personality.
Marlene Dietrich
Timing: The alpha and omega of aerialists, jugglers, actors, diplomats, publicists, generals, prizefighters, revolutionists, financiers, dictators, lovers.
Marlene Dietrich
Superstitions are habits rather than beliefs.
Marlene Dietrich
It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.
Marlene Dietrich
When you're dead, you're dead. That's it.
Marlene Dietrich
I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men.
Marlene Dietrich
Logic is the key to an all-inclusive spiritual well-being.
Marlene Dietrich
The tears I have cried over Germany have dried. I have washed my face.
Marlene Dietrich
To be completely woman you need a master, and in him a compass for your life. You need a man you can look up to and respect. If you dethrone him it's no wonder that you are discontented, and discontented women are not loved for long.
Marlene Dietrich
one should be afraid of life, not of death.
Marlene Dietrich
He [Ernest Hemingway] is gentle, as all real men are gentle without tenderness, a man is uninteresting.
Marlene Dietrich
Most women set out to try to change a man, and when they have changed him they do not like him.
Marlene Dietrich
Being in the depths of sadness is just as important an experience as being exuberantly happy.
Marlene Dietrich
I was raised almost entirely on turnips and potatoes, but I think that the turnips had more to do with the effect than the potatoes.
Marlene Dietrich
If there is a supreme being, he's crazy.
Marlene Dietrich
A king, realizing his incompetence, can either delegate or abdicate his duties. A father can do neither. If only sons could see the paradox, they would understand the dilemma.
Marlene Dietrich
A country without bordellos is like a house without bathrooms.
Marlene Dietrich
Words can bruise and break hearts, and minds as well. There are no black and blue marks, no broken bones to put in plaster casts, and therefore no prison bars for the offender.
Marlene Dietrich
