I Got Rid Of All Those Reporters.

Life Is Not A Having And A Getting, But A Being And A Becoming.

When I Think Of [my Relationship With Gable], Considering The Way It Started, It Was Curious. We Became Devoted To Each Other. We Weren't Lovers-he Was In Love With Carole Lombard...we Eventually Became More Like Siblings. Nobody Believes That And You Can Understand Why...but Our Relationship Was Unique. Oh He Sometimes Gave Me The Macho Routine When People Were Watching But He Changed When We Were Alone.

I Was Glamorous Because Of Magicians Like George Folsey, James Wong Howe, Oliver Marsh, Ray June, And All Those Other Great Cinematographers. I Trusted Those Men And The Other Experts Who Made Us Beautiful. The Rest Of It I Didn't Give A Damn About. I Didn't Fuss About My Clothes, My Lighting, Or Anything Else, But, Believe Me, Some Of Them Did.

Why Does Every Black Person In The Movies Have To Play A Servant? How About A Black Person Walking Up The Steps Of A Courthouse Carrying A Briefcase?

I Think That Carrying On A Life That Is Meant To Be Private In Public Is A Breach Of Taste, Common Sense, And Mental Hygiene.
