Men fell in love with Gilda, but they wake up with me.
Just because I was married to Aly Khan, people think I'm rich. Well, I'm not. I never got a dime from Aly or from any of my husbands.

Every actor. every director, everybody needs an Oscar. You have to have that little statue in Hollywood or else you are nothing.
I guess the only jewels of my life were the pictures I made with Fred Astaire.
When I look back on my marriages, or the breakups, sure I know the pain I went through, but that's part of life and it has its own value.
