Ava Gardner’s 5 most popular quotes

  • When I’m old and gray, I want to have a house by the sea. And paint. With a lot of wonderful chums, good music, and booze around,. And a damn good kitchen to cook in.
  • The truth is that the only time I’m happy is when I’m doing absolutely nothing. I don’t understand people who like to work and talk about it like it was some sort of goddamn duty. Doing nothing feels like floating on warm water to me. Delightful, perfect.
  • Women’s liberation as a movement makes some valid points. But in the final analysis, it doesn’t matter who wears the pants—as long as there’s money in the pockets.
  • If I had my life to live over again, I’d live it the same way. Maybe a few changes here or there, but nothing special. The truth is, honey, I’ve enjoyed my life. I’ve had a hell of a good time.
  • I’ve certainly never taken the care of myself that I should have. On the contrary. I’ve done a lot of late nights without enough sleep and all that. But I’ve had fun. Whatever wrinkles are there, I’ve enjoyed getting them.
