I don't drink as much as I use to could.

Vickie Lynn Hogan is my birth certificate's name.

I am just so happy and thrilled and I am so glad Mr. Hefner chose me.

I just feel a connection with Marilyn Monroe. I just love her. I just completely feel what she went through.

I was 23, and he was 86. I saw a very sick man. I just wanted to just talk with him. There was no physical attraction at all. He was very much attracted to me.

I have been alone since my husband died. I stay in my home. I don't date. It's hard to date when you're at home. Nobody knows you.

Living in a small town, I knew everybody and everybody knew me.

Marrying into money was not a good thing for me.

It's very expensive to be me. It's terrible the things I have to do to be me.

I did Playboy. There was an ad in the paper for playmates. Playboy called me and flew me to Los Angeles, and I was on the March cover of 1992.

If I have another child, I doubt I'll get married again. I don't think men particularly want to be with me.

I'm going to fight until the end. My husband is worth it. He wanted me to have it. He was worth a lot. He was a very, very wealthy man.

I wanted to become a model and an actress.

I don't drink as much as I use to could.

I don't have a boyfriend right now. I'm looking for anyone with a job that I don't have to support.

I never thought to ever ask for money. I was so stupid.

People are just so stupid.

Men don't even ask me out. I can't remember the last time I was asked out on a date, and I'm talking years here. I spend my life more and more alone.

I don't understand why God took him and didn't take me.

You never know if they like you for who you are or what you are. Would he love me or the money?

'Anna Nicole' came from Guess Jeans; Paul Marciano and me and one of his friends, we were sitting around coming up with a stage name, and that's where that came from.

For some reason, people think I am this terrible person and it really hurts me to hear that. I am just doing the best I know how to.

I couldn't make ends meet. I tried Red Lobster. I tried Wal-Mart. I tried all these places and I couldn't make it. I couldn't. So, I tried this gentlemen's club, and, you know, I worked there, and it was just awful in those places. It was terrible.

I don't date. It's hard to date when you're at home. Because nobody knows you.

I just know I'm going to be an actress. I want it so bad.

I want to be the new Marilyn Monroe.

One thing about living in a small town, I knew everybody and everybody knew me.

I'd never been content in America.

You're never too old, never too bad, never too late and never too sick to start from the scratch once again.

I shoot my big mouth off; it just pops up! I have to learn to edit myself.

Sports is the toy department of human life.

Yes, in general, I think there is too much club football on TV.

I've used my experience from playing sports in almost every aspect of my life. Playing soccer is where I found my voice, and playing softball was where I learned precision, and in every game I learned to play as a member of a team - to work not for my own glory, but for a shared goal.

I was in one bar band from 1965 to '69, then I was in another one from 1970 to '79 - a 9-year bar band!

Love is quite simply a natural high.

We met because Chad was in one of my classes, and I was looking for someone to write music with. I knew that he wrote his own music, and he seemed nice, so I found out he was going to be in a practice room, practicing his trumpet. He'd already said he was too busy to hang out or hear any new people or work on any music, so I stalked him.

Today she is the lady of death, which I believe is the best muse to have.

Success is a journey, not a destination.

The hardest thing about writing a script is you finish it, but it doesn't mean anything. It's not like a novel or short story - a script is meant to be made into a movie.

A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that individuality is the key to success.

I am an Epicurean. I consider the genuine (not the imputed) doctrines of Epicurus as containing everything rational in moral philosophy which Greek and Roman leave to us.

Journalists have sometimes looked to my Twitter account and quoted me from there, and that's fine because that's public domain. I know exactly what I'm doing when I post something on Twitter; in a way, it's saying, 'This is who I am, and I don't have anything to hide.'

Never underestimate how much assistance, how much satisfaction, how much comfort, how much soul and transcendence there might be in a well-made taco and a cold bottle of beer.

I rewind the TV every two minutes. If someone does something interesting, I have to see it over and over again.

Some years ago I became president of Columbia University and learned within 24 hours to be ready to speak at the drop of a hat, and I learned something more, the trustees were expected to be ready to speak at the passing of the hat.

Ambition and the belly are the two worst counselors.

I had such a great upbringing in Puerto Rico, and it was just a very normal life.

An actress in a film starts every day with an hour and a half in front of a mirror, with hair and make-up and costumes.

Men like me, who merely wish to establish political freedom, will in such circumstances lose all their influence, and others will get influence who may become dangerous to all established interests whatsoever.
