More quotes by Bette Davis
Without discipline and detachment, an actor is an emotional slob, spilling his insides out. This abandonment is having an unfortunate vogue. It is tasteless, formless, absurd. Without containment there is no art. All this vomiting and wheezing and bursting at the seams is no more great acting than the convulsions of raving maniacs.

Bette Davis
The male ego with few exceptions is elephantine to start with.
Bette Davis
I have often seen an actor laugh off the stage, but I don't remember ever having seen one weep.
Bette Davis
From the moment I was six I felt sexy. And let me tell you it was hell, sheer hell, waiting to do something about it.
Bette Davis
I will not retire while I've still got my legs and my make-up box.
Bette Davis
Evil people you never forget them. And that's the aim of any actress-never to be forgotten.
