Famous quotes about diamonds

Diamonds can be symbols for so many different things so the fact that diamonds were often subject of many famous quotes shouldn't really surprise us. Here are some of the most famous quotes about diamonds.

"Diamonds never leave you...men do..." was a famous quotation by Welsh singer Shirley Bassey. Judging by this quotes it looks like women should rather stick with diamonds than men because men are not as trustworthy as diamonds. These can of course be debated.

"Diamonds are nothing more than chunks of coal that stuck to their job" is a famous quotation by Malcolm Stevenson Forbes, publisher of the famous Forbes magazine that was founded by his father B.C. Forbes. Diamonds are indeed made of carbon just like coal but their visual apperance as well as superior properties means that diamonds have done great deal much than just stuck to their job.

"I never hated man enough to give him his diamonds back" is a famous quotation by legendary Hungarian-born actress, and former sex symbol Zsa Zsa Gabor. Zsa Zsa at her very best what more to say. She only pointed out that well known fact about how difficult it is to separate woman from her jewelry, especially diamond jewelry which is the best around.

"Big girls need big diamonds" is a famous quotation by acting legend Elizabeth Taylor. You'll barely find "bigger actress" than Liz, so it's really no surprise that her former husband Richard Burton payed entire fortune for huge diamond that was later called Taylor-Burton diamond". How about small girls Liz? Should they settle with small diamonds?

"I don't work out. If God had wanted us to bend over, He would have put diamonds on the floor." This is quote by Joan Rivers, famous American comedian and actress, and also my favorite diamond quote. A bit lazy there Joan but no doubt quite witty.

Look Joan there are some diamonds on the floor:)
