More quotes by Marlene Dietrich
one should be afraid of life, not of death.
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
When you're dead, you're dead. That's it.
Marlene Dietrich
Darling, the legs aren't so beautiful, I just know what to do with them.
Marlene Dietrich
Love for the joy of loving, and not for the offerings of someone else's heart.
Marlene Dietrich
On Becoming a 'Lady': What every mother wants her daughter to be.
Marlene Dietrich
The average man is more interested in a woman who is interested in him than he is in a woman with beautiful legs.
Marlene Dietrich
I dress for the image. Not for myself, not for the public, not for fashion, not for men.
Marlene Dietrich
There's something about an American soldier you can't explain. They're so grateful for anything, even a film actress coming to see them.
Marlene Dietrich
Don't follow it blindly into every dark alley. Always remember that you are not a model or a mannequin for which the fashion is created.
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
Glamour is assurance. It is a kind of knowing that you are all right in every way, mentally and physically and in appearance, and that, whatever the occasion or the situation, you are equal to it.
Marlene Dietrich
I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself.
Marlene Dietrich
There comes a time when suddenly you realize that laughter is something you remember and that you were the one laughing.
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
To lose your prejudices you must travel.
Marlene Dietrich
It's the friend you call up at four o'clock in the morning that really matters.
Marlene Dietrich
Victory is gay only back home. Up front it is joyless.
Marlene Dietrich
The relationship between the make-up man and the film actor is that of accomplices in crime
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
