George Hamilton

The truth of it is that women are far more logical than men.

I always adored Cary Grant. I was fascinated by him. But I could never get too close to him.

I doubt anyone in Hollywood has had more 'dates' than me.

A world-class playboy once told me that the key to mesmerising women is to listen to them and look deeply into their eyes.

Women don't like men who know they're good looking. They'd much prefer a man who doesn't know he's good looking.

It's hard for people to get their hands around fame, because it's heady stuff, and you have to look at it as being dangerous explosives, and you have to handle it with care.

A lot of actors flame out.

I'm not somebody who runs from the press. I'm not coy. I appreciate the press I've had over the years.

Women want honesty but sometimes get upset if you are honest, so you need to know when to be honest.

Once, as an experiment, I travelled around the world with a single suit. Before I left, I went to a tailor in Savile Row and asked him to make me a suit that I could wear in any climate and which I could use as a tuxedo, a dinner jacket, a lounge suit and a blazer.

I've developed a self-discipline since the time I was a child.

My mother was a star-struck girl from a little town in Arkansas who had gone to finishing school in New York, and whose mother had given her anything she ever wanted.

I don't use the phrase 'I love you' very often, but I say it every time I talk to my children.

I'm kind of like a relic from another era.

I've never turned down an autograph request. I've never not taken a picture with someone.

Democracy, if it meant what our forefathers said, that would be great, but unfortunately it's been corrupted by this funding and funding of campaigns. There's a much better way to do it. There could be a small amount of money given by every taxpayer to be dedicated to candidates.

I'm my own doctor. I have a group of people who call me up on a weekly basis. I'm a 'doctor' without a license.

I consume an enormous number of books, but they're always on a particular subject because I'm obsessive.

Acting has always been something for me that's been a romp. I just show up and I have a good time, and I hope that I get through the day and I can have lunch in the sun.

It's my personal opinion, and I'm not espousing it to anybody else, I think your immune system and how healthy you are determines how you react to any excess of any kind.
