More quotes by Vivien Leigh
I have just made out my will and given all the things I have and many that I haven't.
Vivien Leigh
Every single night I'm nervous. You never know how the audience is going to react.
Vivien Leigh
When I was at school at Paris, I had special lessons from Mademoiselle Antoine, an actress at the Comedie Francaise, and I was taken to every sort of play. I felt very grand.

I don't know what that Method is. Acting is life, to me, and should be.
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
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
People who are very beautiful make their own laws.
Vivien Leigh
People think that if you look fairly reasonable, you can't possibly act, and as I only care about acting, I think beauty can be a great handicap.
Vivien Leigh
Things are simple when you're going to die.
Vivien Leigh
Life is too short to work so hard.
Vivien Leigh
Streetcar is the most wonderful, wonderful play.
Vivien Leigh
You know the passage where Scarlett voices her happiness that her mother is dead, so that she can't see what a bad girl Scarlett has become? Well, that's me.
Vivien Leigh
It's much easier to make people cry than to laugh.
