More quotes by Vivien Leigh
I always know my lines.
Vivien Leigh
It's much easier to make people cry than to laugh.
Vivien Leigh
Having lost Rhett, she can always return to the land - to Tara, to soak up its strength. . . . Tara! . . . Home. I'll go home, and I'll think of some way to get him back! After all, tomorrow is another day!
Vivien Leigh
Some critics saw fit to say that I was a great actress. I thought that was a foolish, wicket thing to say because it put such an onus and such a responsibility onto me, which I simply wasn't able to carry.
Vivien Leigh
I've always been mad about cats.
Vivien Leigh
Shaw is like a train. One just speaks the words and sits in one's place. But Shakespeare is like bathing in the sea - one swims where one wants.
Vivien Leigh
Scarlett: You should die of shame to leave me here alone and helpless. Rhett: You helpless? (laughs) Heaven help the Yankees if they capture you.
Vivien Leigh
Tired of all her efforts at Tara, Scarlett wishes to escape too: I do want to escape too! I'm so very tired of it all!. . . The South is dead, it's dead, the Yankees and the carpetbaggers have got it and there's nothing left for us.
Vivien Leigh
People who are very beautiful make their own laws.
Vivien Leigh
I think any classical training in the theatre is of enormous value.
Vivien Leigh
Comedy is much more difficult than tragedy-and a much better training, I think. It's much easier to make people cry than to make them laugh.
Vivien Leigh
Scarlett tells Mammy: I'm too young to be a widow. She weeps to her mother: My life is over. Nothing will ever happen to me anymore. Her mother comforts her: It's only natural to want to look young and be young when you are young.
Vivien Leigh
I loved fencing and dancing and elocution.
Vivien Leigh
My birth sign is Scorpio and they eat themselves up and burn themselves out. I swing between happiness and misery. I am part prude and part nonconformist. I say what I think and I don't pretend and I am prepared to accept the consequences of my actions.
Vivien Leigh
I cannot let well enough alone. I get restless. I have to be doing different things. I am a very impatient person and headstrong. If I've made up my mind to do something, I can't be persuaded out of it.
Vivien Leigh
My first husband and I are still good friends and there is no earthly reason why I should not see him. Larry and I are very much in love.
Vivien Leigh
I'm not a film star I am an actress. Being a film star is such a false life, lived for fake values and for publicity.
Vivien Leigh
My parents were absolutely delighted that I knew what I wanted to do.
Vivien Leigh
Life is too short to work so hard.
Vivien Leigh
Streetcar is a most wonderful, wonderful play.
