The Audrey Hepburn Way of Life

"For Attractive lips, speak words of kindness, For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people, For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry, For Beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day, For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others."
— Audrey Hepburn

"I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person."
— Audrey Hepburn

"If I’m honest I have to tell you I still read fairy-tales and I like them best of all."
— Audrey Hepburn

"You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him."
— Audrey Hepburn

"Pick the day. Enjoy it - to the hilt. The day as it comes. People as they come... The past, I think, has helped me appreciate the present, and I don't want to spoil any of it by fretting about the future."
— Audrey Hepburn

"Let's face it, a nice creamy chocolate cake does a lot for a lot of people; it does for me."
— Audrey Hepburn

"The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole,but true beauty in a Woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she knows."
— Audrey Hepburn

"If I get married, I want to be very married."
— Audrey Hepburn

"I'm an introvert . . . I love being by myself, love being outdoors, love taking a long walk with my dogs and looking at the trees,flowers,the sky."
— Audrey Hepburn

"Others matter more than you do, so 'don't fuss, dear; get on with it'."
— Audrey Hepburn

"I believe in colors. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner.I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles."
—Audrey Hepburn
