Quotes

#	Quote
1	[on John Wayne] I adored John Wayne. We got along fabulously! The first time we worked together, I didn't like him at all; but in Honolulu he was a much happier man.
2	I loved Gary Cooper, for years and years and years. And I still love him. Of course, Becky (Cooper's wife, Veronica Balfe, (Sandra Shaw) was not very happy with me. And I don't blame her. Nor was her little daughter, Maria Cooper Janis, who I guess was about 11 when we started...And I was very sorry. But Gary...I just loved Gary very much. - PN, in a 2008 interview.
3	Gort, Klaatu barata nikto. - PN's immortal, earth-saving line uttered to the alien robot Gort in the classic sci-fi film The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
4	I've had a lovely time. - PN's last words while on her deathbed
5	Frequently my life has been likened to a Greek tragedy, and the actress in me cannot deny that comparison.
6	[when she heard Paul Newman died] Somebody came in and told me that Paul had died, and I was heartbroken, because he was a beautiful man. I knew that he was a little ill, and I knew that he was probably going to die, but you know it's just so heartbreaking when one hears it.
7	[on Gary Cooper] He was the most gorgeously attractive man. Bright, too, though some people didn't think so.
8	John Wayne had enormous appeal for the public, but I did not find him appealing in the least. I think my charms were lost on him too. He was going through marital problems, which kept him in a bad humor all the time. Duke was at odds with the director and could be a bully, particularly with a gay publicity man, who seemed to draw his wrath at every turn. - On Operation Pacific (1951)
9	I think I was born stubborn, that's all.
10	"In 1949, we stayed with one of my friends who had a book in which people were asked to write down their secret ambitions. Ronald Reagan wrote he'd like to be president. All those years ago!".
