More quotes by Tallulah Bankhead
There is less in this than meets the eye.
Tallulah Bankhead
It's the good girls who keep diaries the bad girls never have the time.
Tallulah Bankhead

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
They say it's the good girls who keep diaries. The bad girls never have the time. Me, I just wanna live a life I'm gonna remember even if I don't write it down.
Tallulah Bankhead
Acting is a form of confession.
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
They aren't making mirrors like they use to.
