Marlene Dietrich
When you prostitute yourself, you have to get paid for it.
Marlene Dietrich

Marlene Dietrich
Tenderness is greater proof of love than the most passionate of vows.
Marlene Dietrich

Marlene Dietrich
It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.
Marlene Dietrich
Friendship is a precious gift that can't be bought or sold. It's value is greater than mountains made of gold. If you shall ask God for a gift be thankful if he sends not diamonds pearls or riches but the love and trust of friends. It is the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.
