"I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves. They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't."
"When it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them."
"A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left."
"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."
"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."
"Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition."
"It's not true that I had nothing on. I had the radio on."
"If I'd observed all the rules I'd never have got anywhere."
"It's often just enough to be with someone. I don't need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not alone."
"Dogs never bite me. Just humans."
"What do I wear in bed? Why, Chanel No. 5, of course."
"I knew I belonged to the public and to the world, not because I was talented or even beautiful, but because I had never belonged to anything or anyone else."
"Looking back, I guess I used to play-act all the time. For one thing, it meant I could live in a more interesting world than the one around me. "
"A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night."
"How wrong it is for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself."
"I guess I have always been deeply terrified to really be someone's wife since I know from life one cannot love another, ever, really."
"I've never dropped anyone I believed in"
"People had a habit of looking at me as if I were some kind of mirror instead of a person. They didn't see me, they saw their own lewd thoughts, then they white-masked themselves by calling me the lewd one."
“Men are so willing to respect anything that bores them.”
“Before marriage, a girl has to make love to a man to hold him. After marriage, she has to hold him to make love to him.”
"Sometimes I think it would be easier to avoid old age, to die, young, but then you`d never complete your life, would you? You`d never wholly know yourself."
