Rudolph Valentino(1895-1926)

At the height of his popularity, he went on a brief sojourn in his native Italy to visit friends and family and, in general, to get a much-needed rest. When he returned to Hollywood, friends asked him if he had been mobbed by fans while on vacation. He said no, explaining that "over there, I look like every other Italian fellow on the street".

To generalize on women is dangerous. To specialize in them is infinitely worse.
