Some People Have Been Unkind. If I Say I Want To Grow As An Actress, They Look At My Figure. If I Say I Want To Develop, To Learn My Craft, They Laugh. Somehow They Don't Expect Me To Be Serious About My Work.

I Remember When I Got The Part In Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Jane Russell - She Was The Brunette In It And I Was The Blonde. She Got $200,000 For It, And I Got My $500 A Week, But That To Me Was, You Know, Considerable. She, By The Way, Was Quite Wonderful To Me. The Only Thing Was I Couldn't Get A Dressing Room. Finally, I Really Got To This Kind Of Level And I Said, "look, After All, I Am The Blonde, And It Is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes!" Because Still They Always Kept Saying, "remember, You're Not A Star." I Said, "well, Whatever I Am, I Am The Blonde!

Just Because You Fail Once, Doesn't Mean You're Fail At Everything. Keep Trying, Hold On, And Always Trust Yourself, Because If You Don't Then Who Will??

I Just Got To Feel That Whoever I Marry Has Some Real Regard For Me.

You Can't Sleep Your Way Into Being A Star. It Takes Much, Much More. But It Helps A Lot Of Actresses Get Their First Chance That Way.
