“She was a great lady, and also great fun.” —Ava Gardner “She was anything but cold. Everything about Grace was appealing. She had those big warm eyes, and if you ever played a love scene with her, you knew she wasn’t cold.” —James Stewart “In two senses, she didn’t have a bad side–you could film her from any angle, and she was one of the most untemperamental, cooperative people in the business.” —Cary Grant “The subtlety of Grace’s sexuality–her elegant sexiness–appealed to me. . . . With Grace, you had to find it out–you had to discover it.” —Alfred Hitchcock “You couldn’t work with Grace Kelly without falling a little in love with her.” —Fred Coe “I thought she was the most gorgeous creature I ever met. . . . She was so entirely unaffected, completely without vanity.” —Rita Gam “She was a delight to have in the company–a rare kind of young person who had a hunger to learn and to improve herself.” —Raymond Massey “I saw the utter perfection of her nose . . . the long, elegant neck . . . the silky, diaphanous blond hair. . . . A very aristocratic-looking girl . . . not the sort you simply called for a date.” —Oleg Cassini
