Marlene Dietrich

27 December 1901 – 6 May 1992

German actress, singer and performer.

 

It’s the friends you can call up at four a.m. that matter.

 

Think twice before burdening a friend with a secret.

 

If there is a supreme being, he's crazy.

 

I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognizably wiser than oneself.

 

I'm worth more dead than alive. Don't cry for me after I'm gone; cry for me now.
