We can talk endlessly about Audrey Hepburn And today, on the 18th anniversary of her death, I propose to remember what this great woman said about fashion and beauty, how she felt about her success and what she advised to those who want to repeat it.
“A woman’s beauty is not in the shape of her face, not in the clothes she wears or in her hairstyle. True female beauty is reflected in her soul, it is manifested in how passionately a woman gives her love. Women's beauty grows over the years."
“Beauty should shine in the eyes because it is the door to her heart, the place where love lives.”
“In order for your eyes to be beautiful, look for kindness in those around you, so that your lips are attractive, say only pleasant words, for a slim figure, share food with hunger, and for beautiful hair, let your child run his hands through it once a day . For good posture, remember that you will never be alone."
“Success is when you reach the milestone date and realize that you haven’t changed at all.”
“The shadow from a spotlight can ruin a girl’s figure.”
“Sexuality is not only physical parameters. To prove my femininity, I don't need a bed at all. I can just stand in the rain and pick apples from a tree and it will be much more sexy.”
“I believe in manicures, in flashy clothes, and in the fact that on vacation you also need to do your hair and apply lipstick. I believe in the color pink and that happy girls are the most beautiful. I believe that the best way to burn calories is laughter. I believe that tomorrow will be a new day, and... I believe in miracles.”
“Let's be honest: a good piece of chocolate cream pie means a lot to people. At least for me".
“You can judge a person much more by how he speaks about others than by what others say about him.”
“You could easily look just like me. If a woman wants to look like Audrey Hepburn , she should comb her hair, wear big glasses and a sleeveless dress."
“I would never have thought that a face like mine could appear in photographs in magazines!”
“You can always tell what kind of person a man thinks you are by the kind of earrings he gives you.”
“Cosmetics can make you beautiful on the outside, but it won’t help if you’re ugly on the inside. Unless you eat it."
“My life is not theories and formulas. It's part instinct, part feeling. “Logic is as good a word as any other, and I get it from everywhere: from my mother, from my ballet class teacher, from Vogue magazine, from the laws of life, health and nature.”
We can talk endlessly about Audrey Hepburn But no one can express her thoughts for her, or even better than her. However, in the end, I want to give two more quotes about her from her friends: her favorite fashion designer Hubert Givenchy and colleague Peter Ustinov . Quotes taken from the book “Audrey Hepburn” by Donald Spoto (Exmo, 2007)
“ Hubert (Givenchy) felt that “she (Audrey Hepburn) always knew what she wanted and what she was striving for. She was a very precise person, a true professional. She was never late and never made a scene. Unlike many celebrities, Audrey didn't act like a crazy star. She knew exactly what would highlight her strong, independent character. Her character was evident in her clothing style. She always made the clothes made for her even more suitable for her, adding some touch, some personal detail that fit perfectly into the image.”
“The numbers say Audrey died young. What the numbers don't say is that Audrey would have died young at any age." Peter Ustinov

Audrey Hepburn best quotes and aphorisms

People, much more than things, need to be picked up, repaired, found a place and forgiven; never throw anyone away...

I believe that the best way to burn calories is laughter. I believe that tomorrow will be a new day, and... I believe in miracles.
All my life my mother instilled in me that a person should be useful. She was sure that giving love is much more important than receiving it.
The beauty of a woman is not in her external attractiveness, the true beauty of a woman is reflected in her soul. This is care that she gives with love. It's the passion she shows. A woman's beauty only grows over the years.
The beauty of a woman should be visible in her eyes, it is the door to her heart, the place where love lives.
I don't need a bed to prove my femininity. I can be sexy just picking apples from a tree or standing in the rain.
Living is like running through a museum. And only then do you begin to truly realize what you saw, think about it, consult books and remember - because you cannot accept it all at once.
Giving means living. If you stop giving, you will have nothing to live for.
I never wanted a divorce. I can't stand this word. I cringe when they say it when talking about me. My ideal was to get married once and for all.
My only Christmas wish is peace for all the children on earth.

Motivational quotes by Audrey Hepburn
Today the actress could have turned 89 years old.
The British actress and model was an amazing person not only on screen, but also in life. She was remembered by the people who knew her and the whole world as a woman with a big heart and endless kindness.
The actress’s filmography includes almost 30 films, including the cult “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” Audrey won an Oscar for the film Roman Holiday and has been nominated many times for her other works.
Throughout her life, in addition to her brilliant career, she was involved in charity work. In 1988, she was appointed a special ambassador for UNICEF, and until the end of her life she helped poor children in the world's poorest countries.
Numerous trips around the world undermined the actress’s health and she grew weaker with each long charity expedition. A trip to Somalia and Kenya from September 19 to 24, 1992 was her last - she complained of abdominal pain, local doctors could not make a diagnosis. Audrey refused to end the trip early.
Upon arrival in Los Angeles, doctors diagnosed a tumor in the colon and scheduled surgery.
Despite all the efforts of the doctors and positive prognosis, the operation was performed too late - the tumor had spread to neighboring organs.
There was nothing the doctors could do to help Hepburn, and she decided to spend her last months with her family. As she said before her death, these were the best moments in her life. The actress died on January 20, 1993.
The world will forever remember her not only as a great actress, but also as a person with a kind heart.
Below are vivid quotes from Audrey, which once again prove what an incredible woman Audrey Hepburn was:
Why change? Every person has their own style. Once you find it, you should stick to it.
Happiness does not come into your life with fanfare. The most beautiful things, the ones that give you true happiness, come tiptoeing, quietly... and waiting for you to notice them.
Sexuality is something that is hidden inside a woman.
... My father and mother had almost no time left for me. I remembered that no one needed me, and all my life I doubted that it could be different. Chocolate was my only love, and it never betrayed me.
When I was a child, I was taught that it is indecent to attract attention to yourself, and you should never put yourself on display... This is exactly what I do for a living all my life.
My only Christmas wish is peace for all children on earth.
I never wanted a divorce. I can't stand this word. I cringe when they say it when talking about me. My ideal was to get married once and for all.
All my life my mother instilled in me that a person should be useful. She was sure that giving love is much more important than receiving it.
People, much more than things, need to be picked up, repaired, found a place and forgiven; never throw anyone away...
For confidence, walk with the knowledge that you are not alone.
Aphorisms in English with translation: about love, about life and autumn
Full-fledged study of a foreign language implies gradual coverage of new, in-depth aspects. That is why English aphorisms often become an extremely useful tool for understanding the subtleties of language, mastering the art of constructing phrases and even the ability to play with words. Deep, interesting and wise statements of poets, actors, writers and politicians create a pleasant variety of speech and perfectly reflect the mentality and culture of both native speakers and the authors of popular expressions.
Periodic study of aphorisms in English or their inclusion in the course as a separate topic allows you to achieve several extremely important goals at once.
When the study of aphorisms is just beginning, it makes sense to look for quotes in English with translation. However, later try to move on to the set phrases in the original and independently choose the most beautiful and meaningful interpretation in Russian - such a language exercise is not only interesting, but also incredibly effective for improving English.
Aphorisms in English by topic
About work and achieving goals, about autumn and spring, about love and self-improvement, funny and serious - stable expressions can aptly and beautifully characterize any life phenomena. We bring to your attention bright and popular aphorisms in English with translation, which will significantly broaden your horizons and enrich your speech.
About success
Most aphorisms about the secrets of success in English are associated with the names of historically significant personalities. Let's give an example of some of them.
About life
When you have the opportunity to talk with a native speaker on philosophical topics, aphorisms in English about life are exactly what you need. We present the most relevant and succinct catchphrases that may be useful to you.
About love
Quotes in English about love demonstrate all the thoughts and experiences of famous people who experienced this wonderful feeling. And they all resonate in our hearts to this day - it will be useful to read what the great and famous thought about romance!
With humor
Funny aphorisms in English are an extra reason to smile. Worth a read!
A little bit from Omar Khayyam
Omar Khayyam is a great Persian philosopher, whose precise and deep sayings hit not the eyebrow, but the eye even today. The British also respect the legacy of the sage - here are just some quotes.
It is not at all necessary to memorize English aphorisms about love, life and success - those that you like will definitely be remembered. It is enough to re-read them again from time to time to appreciate the subtlety and intelligence of the authors and discover something new for yourself - both in the language itself and in life.
Quotes by Audrey Hepburn
Beautiful are those lips that often utter kind words. Beautiful are those eyes that try to see only the good in people. He who shares his food with the hungry will have a slim figure. And the hair will become like silk if a child strokes it every day.
I love people who make me laugh. I really think laughing is what I love most. It cures many diseases. Perhaps this is the most important thing in a person.
People, much more than things, need to be picked up, repaired, found a place and forgiven; never throw anyone away...
