More quotes by 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
Don't think this has taught me a lesson !
Tallulah Bankhead
Only good girls keep diaries. Bad girls don't have time.

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
I have been tight as a tick! Fried as a mink! Stiff as a goat!
Tallulah Bankhead
Television could perform a great service in mass education, but there's no indication its sponsors have anything like this on their minds.
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
Acting is a form of confession.
Tallulah Bankhead
[On being asked in her later years if she were Tallulah:] I'm what's left of her, dahling.
Tallulah Bankhead
Say anything about me, darling, as long as it isn't boring.
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
I'm the foe of moderation, the champion of excess.
