I remember all too well the premiere of Ecstasy when I watched my bare bottom bounce across the screen and my mother and father sat there in shock.

I'm a sworn enemy of convention. I despise the conventional in anything, even the arts.

Experts always know everything but the fine points. When I took my citizenship exams, no one there knew how the White House came to be called the White House.
Hedy Lamarr -
I never go to funerals. To me a person is dead when he breathes for the last time. After that, your memories should be personal.
Hedy Lamarr -
Confidence is something you're born with. I know I had loads of it even at the age of 15.
Hedy Lamarr -
If you use your imagination, you can look at any actress and see her nude... I hope to make you use your imagination.

Jack Kennedy always said to me, Hedy, get involved. That's the secret of life. Try everything. Join everything. Meet everybody.
Hedy Lamarr -

Hedy Lamarr -
All my six husbands married me for different reasons.
Hedy Lamarr -
Perhaps my problem in marriage-and it is the problem of many women-was to want both intimacy and independence. It is a difficult line to walk, yet both needs are important to a marriage.

I advise everybody not to save: spend your money. Most people save all their lives and leave it to somebody else. Money is to be enjoyed.
Hedy Lamarr -
When I attained a certain advanced intimacy with a man, and I don't just mean sex, I married him.
Hedy Lamarr -
I would tell anyone who wants something from someone else to feign not wanting it. People are perverse. If you show great affection to them, they'll run the other way.
Hedy Lamarr -
All creative people want to do the unexpected.
Hedy Lamarr -
I find very often that very ugly women have really handsome men and vice versa because they don't have any competition. Sometimes handsome men have avoided me.
Hedy Lamarr -
I am not ashamed to say that no man I ever met was my father's equal, and I never loved any other man as much.

The world isn't getting any easier. With all these new inventions I believe that people are hurried more and pushed more... The hurried way is not the right way; you need time for everything - time to work, time to play, time to rest.
Hedy Lamarr -
I win because I learned years ago that scared money always loses. I never care, so I win.
Hedy Lamarr -
Compromise and tolerance are magic words. It took me 40 years to become philosophical.
Hedy Lamarr -
I believe in sending a lot of letters and notes to friends.
