Ingrid Bergman

I remember one day sitting at the pool and suddenly the tears were streaming down my cheeks. Why was I so unhappy? I had success. I had security. But it wasn't enough. I was exploding inside.

There are advantages to being a star though - you can always get a table in a full restaurant.

If you took acting away from me, I'd stop breathing.

A kiss is a secret told to the mouth instead of the ear; kisses are the messengers of love and tenderness.

Never again! I can see no reason for marriage - ever at all. I've had it. Three times is enough.

Until 45 I can play a woman in love. After 55 I can play grandmothers. But between those ten years, it is difficult for an actress.

I can do everything with ease on the stage, whereas in real life I feel too big and clumsy. So I didn't choose acting. It chose me.

I don't think anyone has the right to intrude in your life, but they do. I would like people to separate the actress and the woman.

I have no regrets. I wouldn't have lived my life the way I did if I was going to worry about what people were going to say.

Happiness is good health and a bad memory.

I have grown up alone. I've taken care of myself. I worked, earned money and was independent at 18.

A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous.
