I think all this talk about age is foolish. Every time I`m one year older, everyone else is too. - Gloria Swanson


Married 6 times, Gloria Swanson started her career in silent films and is best known for her role as Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard in 1950. She has 2 stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame - one for movies and one for television.

Do you remember Carol Burnett's character based on Gloria Swanson?

Anyway - here are some more quotes for Gloria Swanson.

Money was fun only until you ran out of things to buy. Gloria Swanson

As Daddy said, life is 95 percent anticipation.
Gloria Swanson

I always anticipated difficulties in order to avoid scenes.

I've given my memoirs far more thought than any of my marriages. You can't divorce a book.

    Some of those comments are funny. I alwasy tell people on my birthday "I'm a day older than I was yesterday."
