Veronica Lake's quotes

  • You could put all the talent I had into your left eye and still not suffer from impaired vision.
  • I will have one of the cleanest obits of any actress. I never did cheesecake like Ann Sheridan or Betty Grable. I just used my hair.
  • I wasn't a sex symbol, I was a sex zombie.
  • Hollywood gives a young girl the aura of one giant, self-contained orgy farm, its inhabitants dedicated to crawling into every pair of pants they can find.
  • [on Paulette Goddard] It was her honesty I liked.
  • [on Marlon Brando] Our romance was short but sweet. He was on the dawn of a brilliant film career, and I was in the twilight of one. Of course, my career could never compare with his.
  • [on performing with Fredric March in I Married a Witch (1942)] He treated me like dirt under his talented feet. Of all actors to end up under the covers with. That happened in one scene and Mr. March is lucky he didn't get my knee in his groin.
  • [on her famous hairstyle] Apparently it was something that was rather feminine, and I think most men like women to have long hair.
  • [1971] I was never an actress when I was here. I was a freak. But now I'm a bloody damn good actress. I know it sounds immodest, but it's true.
  • [on Hollywood] I walked out of this town when I could have stayed and worked. And I have no regrets. If I'd stayed, I'd be dead now.
