Ten Beautiful Women

The task of selecting ten lookers from an industry that is a hotbed of physical beauty is a fool's mission—obnoxiously subjective on our part and destined to be dismally incomplete. But we did it anyway, and left several gorgeous creatures on the cutting room floor. Let us know who you would put on the list.

"Any girl can be glamorous. All you have to do is stand still and look stupid." — Hedy Lamarr

"I never really thought of myself as a sex goddess; I felt I was more a comedian who could dance." — Rita Hayworth

"No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl. All little girls should be told they're pretty, even if they aren't." — Marilyn Monroe

"Every time you picture is taken, you lose a part of your soul." — Anna May Wong

"I don't have sex appeal and I know it. As a matter of fact, I think I'm rather funny looking. My teeth are funny, for one thing, and I have none of the attributes usually required for a movie queen, including the shapeliness." — Audrey Hepburn

"I was unique in that I was a kind of black that white people could accept. I was their daydream. I had the worst kind of acceptance because it was never for how great I was or what I contributed. It was because of the way I looked." — Lena Horne

"After my screen test, the director clapped his hands gleefully and yelled, 'She can't talk! She can't act! She's sensational!'" — Ava Gardner

"I don't want to dress up a picture with just my face." — Grace Kelly

"Sex appeal is fifty percent what you've got and fifty percent what people think you've got." — Sophia Loren

"I have the emotions of a child in the body of a woman. I was rushed into womanhood for the movies. It caused me long moments of unhappiness and doubt." — Elizabeth Taylor
