Bette Davis

"I don't take the movies seriously, and anyone who does is in for a headache."

"I was never very interested in boys - and there were plenty of them - vying with one another to see how many famous women they would get into the hay."

"I work to stay alive."

"I'd marry again if I found a man who had fifteen million dollars, would sign over half to me, and guarantee that he'd be dead within a year."

"Men become much more attractive when they start looking older. But it doesn't do much for women, though we do have an advantage: make-up."

"Oh, don't let's ask for the moon. We've already got the stars."

"Strong women only marry weak men."

"Wave after wave of love flooded the stage and washed over me, the beginning of the one great durable romance of my life."
