More quotes by Tallulah Bankhead
I have enemies I've never met - that's fame.
Tallulah Bankhead

Tallulah Bankhead
Fill what is empty, empty what is full, and scratch where it itches.
Tallulah Bankhead
I have three phobias ...: I hate going to bed, get up and hate hate being alone.

Don't think this has taught me a lesson !
Tallulah Bankhead
A Republican. A Republican. That's worse than being a goddamned Communist!
Tallulah Bankhead
[On being asked in her later years if she were Tallulah:] I'm what's left of her, dahling.
