Audrey Hepburn Quotes on Beauty, Kindness, and Life

I was born with a huge need for affection, to give and receive.

I was asked to act when I couldn’t, to sing when I didn’t know how, and to dance with Fred Astaire when I wasn’t ready. I tried like crazy to deal with these difficulties.

My own life has been more than a fairy tale. I’ve been through many difficult times, but I’ve managed to overcome them all.

For me, the only things that matter are those connected to the heart.

I never think of myself as an icon. What’s in people’s minds is not in mine.

People can be Audrey Hepburn wearing my dresses, glasses, and changing their hair.

No matter what happens, the most important thing is to age gracefully. And you can’t do that on the cover of a fan magazine.

I think sex is overrated. I have no sex appeal and I know it. I’m very weird: my teeth are funny and I don’t have any of the attributes required for a sexy actress.

I understood the despair of people who had seen Julie on Broadway. She played her part, and for that reason I didn’t want to do the movie when they offered it to me. The problem was that, with or without me, Jack Warner would never put Julie Andrews in the movie. I don’t know why. (about her role in My Fair Lady).
