Jean Harlow's quotes

  • [on Hell's Angels (1930)] When I was making a personal appearance, I'd always sneak in the back of the house to watch the zeppelin airplane attack. I never failed to get a tremendous thrill out of it. I probably saw that scene hundreds of times.
  • I was not a born actress. No one knows it better than I. If I had any latent talent, I have had to work hard, listen carefully, do things over and over and then over again in order to bring it out.
  • Men like me because I don't wear a brassiere. Women like me because I don't look like a girl who would steal a husband. At least not for long.
  • To me, love has always meant friendship.
  • No one ever expects a great lay to pay all the bills.
  • There is a God, even in Hollywood.
