Audrey Hepburn

I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.

I’m an introvert… I love being by myself, love being outdoors, love taking a long walk with my dogs and looking at the trees, flowers, the sky.

I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel.

I never think of myself as an icon. What is in other people’s minds is not in my mind. I’m just a girl who loves to make movies.

My life is more than a fairy tale. I know that now. I'm not a princess. I'm a woman.

I don't need a lot of money to be happy. I just need a good book and a cup of tea.

I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.

The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.

I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it’s the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It’s probably the most important thing in a person.

To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.

I never thought I'd be a mother. I just wanted to be a good actress.

I’m not a beauty queen. I’m just a girl who wants to be happy.

I'm not a star. I'm just a girl who likes to act.

I don't want to be alone. I want to be with someone who loves me.

I never thought I would be famous. I just wanted to be a good dancer.

I'm not afraid of getting old. I'm afraid of not living.

I don't want to be perfect. I want to be real.

I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong.

The most important thing is to enjoy your life - to be happy - it's all that matters.
