Watch In HD. Here's my tribute to Audrey Hepburn. The actress, the fashion icon, the mother, the woman, the humanitarian, the angel....

"There is not a woman alive who does not dream of looking like Audrey Hepburn." - Hubert de Givenchy

'' She was the love of my life.'' - William Holden

"The imprint of Miss Hepburn is absolutely, totally present. Like it or not, she will be the most important look of the twentieth century." - Manolo Blahnik

"Extraordinary in every way." - Hubert de Givenchy

"It was my good luck, during that wonderful summer in Rome, to be the first of her screen fellows, to hold out my hand, and help her keep her balance as she did her spins and pirouettes." - Gregory Peck

"She had her own personal style. She was not created by a studio. She didn't need to be created. She simply was." - Linda McEwen

"Audrey Hepburn's face was made for the camera." - Christine Baranski

"In a cruel and imperfect world, she was living proof that God could still create perfection." - Rex Reed

"Most people think of Audrey Hepburn as regal. I like to think of her as spunky. It was my good luck to be her first screen fellow, to hold out my hand and help her keep her balance while she made everybody in the world fall in love with her.'' - Gregory Peck

"Audrey was a lady with an elegance and charm that was unsurpassed, except by her love for underprivileged children all over the world. God has a most beautiful new angel now that will know just what to do in heaven." - Elizabeth Taylor

"[She] became more than a movie star. She became a legend, first on screen - and then on the arid plains of Africa." - Ian Woodward

"After so many drive-in waitresses becoming movie stars, there has been this real drought, when along come class; somebody who actually went to school, can spell, maybe even plays the piano. She may be a wispy, thin little thing, but when you see that girl, you know you're really in the presence of something. In that league there's only ever been Garbo, and the other Hepburn, and maybe Bergman. It's a rare quality, but boy, do you know when you've found it." - Billy Wilder

"One got a sense that Audrey Hepburn didn't know how beautiful she was. There was never another movie star like her." - Issac Mizrahi

"'Moon River' was written for her. No one else has ever understood it so completely. There have been more than one thousand versions, but hers is unquestionably the greatest." - Henry Mancini

"It's quite an acheivement to spend that long in Hollywood and not become a product [of it]... She always manueuvered around that, and that takes intelligence." - Van Johnson

"I couldn't quite fathom that she was real. There were so many paradoxes in that face. Darkness and purity; depth and youth; stillness and animation. She had a fresh new look, a beauty that was ethereal." - Anthony Beauchamp

"She's a lady. When she participates in the academy awards, she makes all those starlets look like tramps. Thank you for your class, Audrey... If any one ever said anything derogatory about her, I'd push them in the river!" - Van Johnson

"Style is a word we use often and for a multitude of purposes. In the case of my mother, Audrey Hepburn, it was the extension of an inner beauty held up by a life of discipline, respect for the other and hope in humanity. lf the lines were pure and elegant it was because she believed in the power of simplicity. If there was timelessness it was because she believed in quality and if she still is an icon of style today, it is because once she found her look she stayed with it throughout her life. She didn't go with the trends, didn't reinvent herself every season. She loved fashion but kept it as a tool to compliment her look." - Sean H. Ferrer

"She had a quality no other actress had: a curious combination of lady and pixie. She was a joy to work with -- enormous talent and no ego." - Sindey Seldon

"She was the best that we could possibly be. She was perfectly charming and perfectly loving. She was a dream; And she was the dream that you remember when you wake up smiling." - Richard Dreyfus

"I am, and forever will be, devastated by the gift of Audrey Hepburn before my camera. I cannot lift her to greater heights. She is already there. I can only record. She has achieved in herself her ultimate portrait." - Richard Avedon

"Audrey had a perfect face and her ballet training made her walk with sleek grace. She radiated elegance. It was a joy to work with her on War and Peace." - Jack Cardiff
