On her breakup with Valentino: "With butlers, maids and the rest, what work is there for a housewife? I won`t be a parasite. I won`t sit home and twiddle my fingers, waiting for a husband who goes on the lot at five a.m. and gets home at midnight and receives mail from girls in Oshkosh and Kalamazoo."
On her first meetings with Valentino: "It wasn`t love at first sight. I think it was good comradeship more than anything else."
I always told my mother that I would see to it that I would never have any children.
