Grace Kelly

“Some day, I'm going to get married, and I'll want to tell my children I was in Africa on a safari.”

“I’ve been accused of being cold, snobbish, distant. Those who know me well know that I’m nothing of the sort. If anything, the opposite is true. But is it too much to ask to want to protect your private life, your inner feelings?”

“If anybody starts using me as scenery, I'll return to New York.”

“I don't want to dress up a picture with just my face.”

“I don't want to be married to someone who feels inferior to my success or because I make more money than he does.”

“I certainly don't think of my life as a fairy tale. I think of myself as a modern, contemporary woman who has had to deal with all kinds of problems that many women today have to deal with.”

“Women's natural role is to be a pillar of the family.”

“My husband often remarked what a pity it was that a great country like America, which in Europe is still regarded as such a young nation, should be represented seemingly only by old or infirm men.”

“I was constantly falling in love, and it never occurred to me that this was wrong or bad.”

“Home is here in Philadelphia. I never like to be away too long.”

“The women here in Monaco don't like me, and so I have to watch everything I say and everything I do because they're so critical.”

“I never really liked Hollywood. I found it unreal - unreal and full of men and women whose lives were confused and full of pain.”

“For a woman, forty is torture, the end.”

“Ingrid Bergman made an enormous impression on me. I couldn't imagine where that kind of acting talent came from.”
