Paulette Goddard's quotes
- Actors and actresses who say they never go to see their own pictures are talking through their hats. You don't have to be a [Sigmund Freud] to know that the most fascinating person in the world - actors or anybody - is yourself.
- I lived in Hollywood long enough to learn to play tennis and become a star, but I never felt it was my home. I was never looking for a home, as a matter of fact.
- [Referring to paintings and fine art) I don't like collecting anything I can't pack.
- {Referring to husband Erich Maria Remarque) We get along very well, I must say. I'm gregarious, and he's sedentary; it works out fine.
- Leave yourself alone as much as possible. Don't worry. I never do. I'm too busy remembering things.
- I was quite poor to begin with. But I think a background of poverty is good. You can always go back to living on $20 a week. You feel like a bandit when you take the good things in life.
- I love doing TV. It's such a breakneck pace you know. It's kiss and go with your leading man. You meet them in the morning and go right into a clinch. The filming is over before you know their last names.
- Life was easy as a blonde. I didn't have to think, I didn't have to talk. All I had to do was waltz around.
- I am not temperamental. I just know what I want and if I don't have it, I try to get it.
- [at the opening of Carol Channing's "Lorelei"] Men no longer prefer blondes; today, gentlemen seem to prefer gentlemen.
- I'm always slightly embarrassed to meet other actresses of my vintage. We have so little in common. They're all so dedicated. I find - so desperate.
- Nobody onscreen fascinates me as much as Paulette Goddard. I'm probably her greatest fan , bar none. I see my own pictures six or seven times. I also take in my own pictures to see what I do wrong or what I do right.
- [on losing the role of Scarlett O'Hara] I'll show 'em!
- [on Charles Chaplin] He asked to call on Mother and me, and began to take me out. I was thrilled and delighted at his attentions, of course. And then, one night he said, "I am writing a screen play for you." And he was. It was Modern Times (1936).
- He wrote four scripts - four complete scripts for me - and destroyed them every one! He wasn't satisfied with them, he said. And so, I broke my contract with him and signed with Selznick for The Young in Heart (1938).
- I never tell my age. It doesn't do in a theatrical career. I always say that if a woman will tell her age, she will tell anything!
- If I am to play an English part in an English film, I want to acquire the English accent. I think I can best do that by wandering 'round London listening to conversations.
- [on The Snoop Sisters: The Female Instinct (1972)] It turned out to be interesting, but I won't do any more acting.
- [on The Snoop Sisters: The Female Instinct (1972)] I really didn't want to do it. But Helen Hayes and Mildred Natwick tempted me. You can't ask for better company in a movie than that.
- [on her 1972 comeback, on television] I was surprised how easy it was for me now because I'm detached. It isn't a life or death situation. I was relaxed. The minute the lights went on I walked straight to my mark. I must have been well trained.
- [1972] This summer I'll go back to our home in Switzerland. It's in the tiny village of Porto Ronco on the shores of Laga Maggiore. I sometimes water ski across the lake to have lunch on the Italian shore.
