More quotes by Tallulah Bankhead
There is less in this than meets the eye.
Tallulah Bankhead
I'm the foe of moderation, the champion of excess. If I may lift a line from a die-hard whose identity is lost in the shuffle, 'I'd rather be strongly wrong than weakly right.'
Tallulah Bankhead
(On seeing a former lover for the first time in years) I thought I told you to wait in the car.
Tallulah Bankhead
If I were well behaved, I'd die of boredom.

Nobody can be exactly like me. Sometimes even I have trouble doing it.
Tallulah Bankhead
It's the good girls who keep diaries the bad girls never have the time.
Tallulah Bankhead
I'm as pure as the driven slush.

Tallulah Bankhead
Do you know what my ambition is in life? To be without ambition. As far back as I can remember I've been absolutely hag-ridden. I'd like to attain the state of mind that the Indians call Nirvana. That, for me, would happen if I were free of ambition.
Tallulah Bankhead
Don't think this has taught me a lesson !
Tallulah Bankhead
[On being asked in her later years if she were Tallulah:] I'm what's left of her, dahling.
Tallulah Bankhead
Fill what is empty, empty what is full, and scratch where it itches.
Tallulah Bankhead
Say anything about me, darling, as long as it isn't boring.
Tallulah Bankhead
It's one of the tragic ironies of the theatre that only one man in it can count on steady work - the night watchman.
