«Mit Brigitte Bardot verschied eine starke und unabhängige Frau, die es nicht nötig hatte, sich dem Zeitgeist unterzuordnen oder sich gar – wie leider viele deutsche Prominente – zur Systemnutte machen zu lassen, und die solches auch in der Not nicht getan hätte. Die einfach zu sich stand und standhaft war. Ein schönes Zitat von ihr als Abschluss: ‹Früher habe ich mit meinem Hintern schockiert, jetzt schockiere ich mit meinen Büchern (Meinungen). Das ist das Gleiche!›» (– Nachruf der Seite https://publikum.net/).
