Glamorous and beautiful, Marlene Dietrich was an actress and singer known for her exquisite fashion sense, diverse acting roles, and scandalous personal life. She was marketed as a provocative femme fatale, but behind the myth was the real Dietrich — free-spirited, outspoken, and determined to live life on her own terms. Dietrich spent her life defying convention and tradition, and attracting critics as well as fans. Her quote is a reminder that courage and grace are a powerful combination of traits — especially in a world that may judge us for being true to ourselves.
