In this quote, Bette Davis is making a sarcastic and darkly humorous comment about marriage and finances. Some key points:

  • She would remarry, but only if the man had a large sum of $15 million.
  • She would want him to sign over half of that ($7.5 million) to her in a prenuptial agreement.
  • Most notably, she adds the morbid condition that he must “guarantee” to die within a year of the marriage.

Davis seems to be implying that at this point in her life and career, she would only consider remarriage for strictly practical financial reasons, not love or companionship. She openly admits the marriage would just be a transactional arrangement to enrich herself upon his quick death.

Overall, it’s a witty but cynical view of marriage, love and money – suggesting Davis had grown distrustful or bored with traditional notions of romance and matrimony later in life.
