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
If I were well behaved, I'd die of boredom.
Tallulah Bankhead
They aren't making mirrors like they use to.
Tallulah Bankhead
There is less in this than meets the eye.
Tallulah Bankhead
