Marlene Dietrich

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
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.
Marlene Dietrich

Marlene Dietrich
Once a woman has forgiven her man, she must not reheat his sins for breakfast.
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
Seeing twilight fall should be prescribed by doctors.
Marlene Dietrich
