Dynasty was the opportunity to take charge of my career rather than waiting around like a library book waiting to be loaned out. (Joan Collins)
I do it because I love acting, I love working, and whether it's radio, television, films, theater, I don't care as long as I can get out there and do it. View quote
Joan Collins
I have a lot of male friends. View quote
Joan Collins
I have the absolute utmost respect for soap opera actors now. They work harder than any actor I know in any other medium. And they don't get very much approbation for it. View quote
Joan Collins
I mean, even my dressing room at the studio has candles and cushions and cashmere rugs and things. View quote
Joan Collins
I think it has something to do with being British. We don't take ourselves as seriously as some other countries do. I think a lot of people take themselves far too seriously; I find that a very tedious attitude. View quote
Joan Collins
Yes, I love playing cartoony characters. Been known for that. View quote
Joan Collins
I've never yet met a man who could look after me. I don't need a husband. What I need is a wife. View quote
Joan Collins
Botox, I think, is poison, I would never put it into my face, and I'm needle-phobic. I spend a lot of time keeping my face out of the sun and taking care of my skin and wearing make-up. View quote
Joan Collins
When I was at school, I was terrible at algebra and arithmetic, but I was always the best at English and literature. And acting, of course. View quote

I do all my own make-up, it takes me 10 minutes. (Joan Collins)
I'm a bit shy, I suppose, and a bit lazy. View quote
Joan Collins
It is unseemly to undress on stage. I won't do that. View quote
Joan Collins
Jennifer Aniston is cute, but I wouldn't call her beautiful. I think that is why Cheryl Cole is so popular, because she is just so pretty and the public are starved of gorgeous people. When I was young, everybody on screen was gorgeous. View quote
Joan Collins
I blame my grandmother for encouraging me to become an actress. View quote
Joan Collins
So-called designer bags are useless, and most are also ugly, faddish and overpriced. Pared down and sleek is always best. View quote
Joan Collins
When I was 49, I posed for Playboy - I was very flattered to be asked. I was quite honoured, really, considering that most of the models they feature are in their twenties. View quote
Joan Collins
I was voted the most beautiful girl in the world in 1958, and courted by every young, available man in Los Angeles, most of whom I didn't go out with, by the way. View quote
Joan Collins
I have girlfriends who've had Botox and been left with lumps in their faces. And the lips, don't even get me started. View quote
Joan Collins
But I have had to give up certain things in my life. One is shopping. Two is lunch with the girls. Three is cocktail parties, and four is studying my lines. View quote
Joan Collins
I've always maintained that there is a very fine line between a daring, sexy older woman and mutton dressed as lamb. (Joan Collins)
Certainly there are dozens of over-50 actresses who look great: Sophia Loren, Susan Sarandon, Ursula Andress, Stefanie Powers, Raquel Welch, Barbara Eden, Joanna Lumley, Linda Gray - the list is endless, and these are just the actresses! I have many friends in their 60s, 70s and 80s, not in the limelight, but who all look absolutely stunning. View quote
Joan Collins
I'm a fiend for costume jewellery and have countless pairs of rhinestone or diamante earrings, which are so flattering when they catch the light. I love the designers Alexis Bittar and Kenneth Jay Lane, and I always go to jewellers Butler & Wilson. View quote
Joan Collins
And I kissed a lot of frogs as well, but no, I kissed a lot of frogs and now I've found my prince. View quote
Joan Collins
I really feel now like a native New Yorker. And I'm very happy here. View quote
Joan Collins
