More quotes by Ethel Barrymore
You grow up the day you have the first real laugh at yourself.
Ethel Barrymore
Is everybody happy? I want everybody to be happy. I know I'm happy.
Ethel Barrymore

Ethel Barrymore

Ethel Barrymore
[on Hollywood] It looks, it feels, as though it had been invented by a Sixth Avenue peepshow man.
Ethel Barrymore
You must learn, day by day, year by year, to broaden your horizon.
Ethel Barrymore
The great actors are the luminous ones. They are the great conductors of the stage.
