Vivien Leigh
I need something truly beautiful to look at in hotel rooms.

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.

My friends, when I was young, were always older than I was, and I've always liked them. And I love old men and old ladies, really. But I've known more elderly men, like Max Beerbohm, like Beranard Berenson, like Somerset Maugham, Winston Churchill-I'd put him first, anyway-what they say is so wise and so good. They know what they're talking about.

Streetcar is a most wonderful, wonderful play.

My parents were French and Irish and our family even has Spanish blood-and I do so love the United States and consider myself part American.

I never found accents difficult, after learning languages.

I will not be ignored.

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
I think any classical training in the theatre is of enormous value.
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
I loved fencing and dancing and elocution.
