Work as hard as you can, whatever you do, and try to spread generosity of spirit.
Audrey Hepburn -
I myself was born with an enormous need for affection and a terrible need to give it

People associate me with a time when movies were pleasant, when women wore pretty dresses in films and you heard beautiful music. I always love it when people write me and say 'I was having a rotten time, and I walked into a cinema and saw one of your movies, and it made such a difference.'
Audrey Hepburn -
Well, it's nice being top banana in the shock department.
Audrey Hepburn -
I never expected to be a star, never counted on it, never even wanted it. Not that I didn't enjoy it all when it happened.

Whatever you love most, you fear you might lose, you know it can change. Why do you look from left to right when you cross the street? Because you don’t want to get run over. But, you still cross the street.
Audrey Hepburn -
Thursday? Oh no, it can't be! It's too gruesome.
Audrey Hepburn -
It makes me self-conscious. It's because I'm known, in the limelight, that it's getting all the gravy, but if you knew, if you saw some of the people who make it possible for UNICEF to help these children survive. These are the people who do the jobs-the unknowns, whose names you will never know...I at least get a dollar a year, but they don't.
Audrey Hepburn -
You have to look at yourself objectively. Analyze yourself like an instrument. You have to be absolutely frank with yourself. Face your handicaps, don't try to hide them. Instead, develop something else.
Audrey Hepburn -
I realize that most of us live on the skin - on the surface - without appreciating just how wonderful it is simply to be alive at all.
Audrey Hepburn -
I can testify to what UNICEF means to children, because I was among those who received food and medical relief right after World War II, I have a long-lasting gratitude and trust for what UNICEF does.

There are more important things than outward appearance. No amount of makeup can cover an ugly personality.
Audrey Hepburn -
I may not always be offered work, but I'll always have my family.
Audrey Hepburn -

Audrey Hepburn -
If I'm honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all.
Audrey Hepburn -
Actually, depravity can be terribly boring if you don't smoke or drink.
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.
Audrey Hepburn
-
It always boils down to the same thing – not only receiving love, but desperately needing to give it.
Audrey Hepburn -
I hate girls that giggle all the time... You hate any girl that David looks at.
Audrey Hepburn -
Happy girls are the prettiest girls.
Audrey Hepburn -
It's that wonderful old-fashioned idea that others come first and you come second. This was the whole ethic by which I was brought up. Others matter more than you do, so 'don't fuss, dear; get on with it.'
