When I first moved to LA, it was very difficult. All the casting directors didn't know what to do with me, with the way I looked. I'm not blonde with tanned skin and tall and skinny. I looked very different - and they said I looked like I was from another time.

Happy birthday Ruth Elizabeth Davis aka Bette Davis!! ♥♥♥♥

(April 5, 1908 - October 6, 1989)

I think it’s a terrible hindrance for any female to have a lot of intelligence in private life. But I think in business, sometimes it’s even worse because there’s deep resentment. No question about it. From the male side of business. We all work for men. They’re the people in charge and I think they find women easier who haven’t the ability to think for themselves or stand up for themselves. One can make more enemies as a female with a brain, I think. No question about that, among the opposite sex. But I don’t think in business it matters whether you’re a man or a woman if you can do your job and have a brain.

My first memory of Bette Davis is of a powerful image burning on a small screen. When I was a girl, in the sixties, I’d come home from school and I’d turn on the old movie channel and plunk down on the couch with my girlfriends and take lessons from Bette Davis on how to scare the hell out of a man! Some thirty years later when I received the first annual Bette Davis lifetime achievement award at Boston University, I was very very very honored. For me, Bette Davis stood out from other actresses because of her signal audacity. The audacity I’m talking about is the bravery of her work. Bette Davis seemed willing. She even had an appetite for parts that were conventionally unappealing. She changed the requirement that actresses in the movies invariably be likable or attractive. She lifted the veil of appropriate behavior in women to expose what was scary, unexpected or ugly. In other words, to do what was appropriate for the character. - Meryl Streep

Bette Davis was so important to me as a young actress. At the age of 17 starting out in Gaslight, she was my inspiration. Her performance as Mildred in Of Human Bondage was my reference point. In her home Bette has a pillow and with it the embroidery says ‘old age is not for sissies’. For Bette Davis youth, middle age, no time of life is a place for sissies. She is an original. There has never been anyone, before or since, who could touch her. - Angela Lansbury

The great lesson I learned from Bette was her absolute dedication to getting everything just right. She used to spend hours studying the character she was going to play, then hours in make-up ensuring that her physical appearance was right for the part. I have always tried to put the same amount of work into everything I've done. - Olivia de Havilland

now, I don't have enough money to do a special giveway, nor do I have great photoshop skills to make a decent gifset. but I do have an enormous love for Audrey Hepburn and for this blog. when I joined tumblr, I never thought it would get this far. however, I'm quite thankful it did. for over than three years, tumblr has brought me nothing but joy. I've met wonderful people who became wonderful friends, but above all things, it has given me the opportunity to cherish and celebrate Audrey Hepburn, to teach and learn more and more about her glorious and inspirational being. I thank you all for making this blog a real thing to me and for appreciating it as much as I do. through this post, I hope you all get to feel my love. to quote Audrey, I'm truly, truly grateful, and terribly happy!

hi! I think this is the quote that I wanted to tell you about. It is from an actor that worked with Miss Hepburn. I am not sure who, but I believe he said that the person who wants to talk or talks to Miss Hepburn, she makes them feel loved or something like that. What do you think? Thank you!

Hi! I did some research and I can’t really find anything of the sort you mentioned. All her co stars just had good words to say about her but I can’t trace anything specifically what you asked. Below are a few quotes which are quite similar to the one you mentioned.

”The last time I saw Audrey was in a flower shop in Gstaad, where we both had homes. I ran after her, slipped on a pile of flowers and broke my ankle. “Oh, dear, Blackie, what have you done?” she asked. “Obviously I’m not the first or the last person to fall at your feet,” I responded. I dare say all of the men who worked with her fell in love with Audrey. You couldn’t help it. She was somebody who comes along whose friendship you cherish.” - Blake Edwards, Director of Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

”Audrey was the kind of person who when she saw someone else suffering tried to take their pain on herself. She was a healer. She knew how to love. You didn’t have to be in constant contact with her to feel you had a friend. We always picked up right where we left off. She tried to teach me how to dress, and I tried to teach her how to be eloquently profane!” - Shirley McLaine, Audrey’s co star in The Children’s Hour.

”I wrote my first and only fan letter to her when she was in Ondine on Broadway. I loved her dearly. I was her No. 1 fan. Once, I happened to have a room next to hers at the Pierre Hotel in New York City. I was having a rough time, and she sat up with me and talked the whole night. Years later, when she wasn’t even nominated for an Oscar for My Fair Lady, I saw her at a dinner party, and she came over to me with tears in her eyes and asked, “Are you still my No. 1 fan?” - Eddie Fisher, Audrey’s friend.

That’s all I got. I hope this helped.

And, if you want to know more quotes about Audrey, I’d recommend this page created by Gabi at Missing Audrey. It has a wonderful collection of many Audrey quotes. :)
