Irene Dunne quotes

1 The things we like best are either illegal, immoral or fattening.
2 if we don’t stand for something, you may be sure we will fall for anything.

3 That’s the kind of stuff you are offered today. Scripts that have you mixed up with young men. I find them utterly revolting.

4 Trying to build the brotherhood of man without the fatherhood of God is like trying to make a wheel without a hub.

5I appeared with many leading men. But working with Cary Grant was different from working with other actors. He was much more fun! I think we were a successful team because we enjoyed working together tremendously, and that pleasure must have shown through onto the screen. I will always remember two compliments he made me. He said I had perfect timing in comedy and that I was the sweetest smelling actress he ever worked with.

6 Of course WE never had to do nude scenes. I’m glad, too, because I’m susceptible to pneumonia.

7 I know all the swear words. I just don’t use them. There are worse things in life than being called a Lady.

8 That’s why there are so few women stars today. Pornography has taken away the mystery.

9 There seems to be a general impression that to be known as normal in Hollywood is akin to being labeled as rare animal in a zoo.

I drifted into acting and drifted out. Acting is not everything. Living is.
