About Anna Held: Helene Anna Held was a Polish-born French stage performer and singer, most often associated with impresario Florenz Ziegfeld, her common-law husband.
It is quite lovely being single, and I much prefer it.
It is a temptation for me to wear all my rings at once.
I think the eyes flirt most. There are so many ways to use them.
I speak English, so I am no longer cute. My tongue itches for French.
I read the papers every day just to discover if one mentions Anna Held.
I let my personal feelings take care of themselves. I find that works better.
I know I am very beautiful.
I have given up trying to be happy. It is no use an leads to nothing.
I want to see people turn and writhe; make them feel things they cannot see and sometimes do not know.
I don't believe in hasty marriages.
I do not like vaudeville, but what can I do? It likes me.
I am very, very proud of my ability as a cook.
For a married woman to flirt is a sin.
You instinctively discover how to entertain an audience.
People look at me and look, but I do not care.
If I get married, I think I'd pick out a newspaperman rather than a millionaire. A newspaperman is a regular fellow.
I wish to please the people, but I want to make them cry, perhaps. There, I have said it.
I was very adept at acquiring languages.
Charm them with your presence as soon as they look at you.
A woman should be like a single flower, not a whole bouquet.
I don't want to get married, and I don't want to work after I'm 30, so I must manage my fortune somehow in the next seven years.
