More quotes by Tallulah Bankhead
I'd rather be strongly wrong than weakly right.
Tallulah Bankhead
Don't think this has taught me a lesson !
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
My progress reminded me of the horses in The Whip. They raced at the limit of their speed directly toward the audience. But they raced on a treadmill which canceled out their progress.
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
For acting, darlings, is the world's most perilous trade. Compared with actors, steeple jacks and deep-sea divers lead snug and placid lives.
Tallulah Bankhead
If I were well behaved, I'd die of boredom.
Tallulah Bankhead
In my lifetime I've been to bed with men, women, and odd pieces of furniture.

Only good girls keep diaries. Bad girls don't have time.

Tallulah Bankhead
There is less in this than meets the eye.
Tallulah Bankhead
I've had a man and I've had a woman, and there's got to be something better.
Tallulah Bankhead
I have been absolutely hag-ridden with ambition. If I could wish to have anything in the world it would be to be free of ambition.
Tallulah Bankhead
Too many of our countrymen rejoice in stupidity, look upon ignorance as a badge of honor. They condemn everything they don't understand.
Tallulah Bankhead
They aren't making mirrors like they use to.
Tallulah Bankhead
Nobody can be exactly like me. Sometimes even I have trouble doing it.
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.
Tallulah Bankhead
I detest acting because it is sheer drudgery.
Tallulah Bankhead
It's the good girls who keep diaries the bad girls never have the time.
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
