Nobody can be exactly like me. Sometimes even I have trouble doing it.
Tallulah Bankhead
No man worth his salt, no man of spirit and spine, no man for whom I could have any respect, could rejoice in the identification of Tallulah's husband. It's tough enough to be bogged down in a legend. It would be even tougher to marry one.
Tallulah Bankhead
Say anything about me, darling, as long as it isn't boring.
Tallulah Bankhead
