My Uncle Jim used to compare being married to an ultra beautiful woman like Sophia, to having an exotic car, like a Ferrari.

Before a session with her make-up guy, she once said: "Please, let my wrinkles alone: it took me years to get them this way".

This was how she looked like in her later years (still acting):
