Anita Loos
Tallulah [Bankhead] never bored anyone, and I consider that humanitarianism of a very high order indeed.
Anita Loos
Memory is more indelible than ink.
Anita Loos
I'm furious about the Women's Liberationists. They keep getting up on soap-boxes and proclaiming that women are brighter than men. That's true, but it should be kept very quiet or it ruins the whole racket.
