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

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.

Always think twice before you decide to do anything for a film. It may seem like a career-changing idea, but think of your family and your future before doing anything risky. Train properly, because looking strong and being strong are two different things.

I was a monster, a problem child.

I hope and believe we are paving a better future for female artists to come.

So another challenge for our generation is to create global institutions that reflect our ideas of fairness and responsibility, not the ideas that were the basis of the last stage of financial development over these recent years.

I love singing; I just don't get to do it enough. The times that I do it, once a year, every year with 'Divas Simply Singing,' is a truly joy to me, but I'd love to do it some more.

Men are just jealous because they can't wear makeup.

My personality has two sides: a very social side and a reclusive side. I love writing fiction, although I can't imagine ever being locked up in a room writing all the time.

It is the same in love as in war; a fortress that parleys is half taken.

I'm not impersonating anybody. I'm perfectly satisfied with what I am.

There are alternate definitions of manhood in the West.

When you take over a company like GE, you think you're going to visit 100 businesses. You're going to go see the factories you haven't seen before. You're going to see a site in Texas and one in Canada and stuff like that. That has fallen by the wayside.

I've always tried to keep my integrity and keep my autonomy.

Onions, along with leeks, garlic, shallots and scallions, make up the allium family of vegetables, which can have beneficial effects on the cardiovascular and immune systems, as well as possible anti-diabetic and anti-cancer effects.

One state can't set everything right, but here in Arizona, we can set an example for the rest of the country in how those of us in elected office conduct ourselves and interact with each other and our constituents.

It is good to follow one's own bent, so long as it leads upward.

The Puritans' sense of priorities in life was one of their greatest strengths. Putting God first and valuing everything else in relation to God was a recurrent Puritan theme.

And the nice thing about writing a novel is you take your time, you sit with the character sometimes nine years, you look very deeply at a situation, unlike in real life when we just kind of snap something out.
