More quotes by Eartha Kitt

Eartha Kitt
Truth is a theory that is constantly being disproved. Only lies, it seems, go on forever.
Eartha Kitt
The thing that hurts, that became anger, was when I realized that if you tell the truth, in a country that says you’re entitled to tell the truth, you get your face slapped and you get put out of work.
Eartha Kitt
My house was bugged. They couldn't find any information on me being a subversive because I happen to love America I just don't like some of the things the government is doing.
