Quoting Joan Collins

"Age is just a number. It's totally irrelevant unless, of course, you happen to be a bottle of wine."
Joan Collins



"I don't look my age, I don't feel my age and I don't act my age. To me age is just a number."
Joan Collins

"If I hear the word 'retire,' it makes me want to throw up. And then do what? Sit around all day watching television?"
Joan Collins



"I don't know why people are so obsessed with age anyway. I mean, 90 is the new 70; 70 is the new 50 and 50 is the new 40; so the whole act-your-age thing? Only up to a point."
Joan Collins

"I consider you as old as you look and feel. And in that case I feel - I feel I'm about 39, like Jack Benny."
Joan Collins



"You can't help getting older, but you can help yourself from becoming old and infirm, in mind as well as body."
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."
Joan Collins
