I don't want to be known as the Hilton heiress, because I didn't do anything for that.

It's traditional for an heiress to be raised in a sheltered way. No one thinks that's true of me, but it actually was.

I never had any desire to become a well-known actress.

I never set out really to build a financial empire or to be a wealthy man.

I knew I would never be cast as the pretty girl.

I never wanted to be the most famous, the most beautiful, the most extravagant.

There was Pauline de Rothschild, who I thought was very fabulous, and Millicent Rogers, the Standard Oil heiress, very chic, very clever, very original. I admired both those women very much. And I had a great example with my mother, who was extremely chic.

I never wanted to be a millionaire. I just wanted to live like one.
