I think you're the saddest girl I ever met

"I hope all my days will be lit by your face, I hope all the years will hold tight our promises..."

The Misfits, 1961.

I was so glad when he married Carole; it was a perfect match. She was so right for him. They both hated anything phony, they both loved life so much… It was so awful, when she was killed in that plane crash. Clark came to me that night when he learned about it.

We didn’t make love—I just held him. He was drunk, he had to get drunk, and he cried like a baby, as though his life had ended, and maybe, in a way, it had.

Happy Birthday Clark Gable!!!  |  February 1, 1901 — November 16, 1960

I adored him. Just adored him. I don’t believe any woman is telling the truth if she ever worked with Gable and did not feel twinges of a sexual urge beyond belief. I would call her a liar.  —Joan Crawford
