More quotes by Vivien Leigh

Vivien Leigh
I shall play Scarlett O'Hara.

My husband, who's the greatest actor in the world, can do anything. Look at what he did in The Critic and Oedipus. In every role he gets-he did this in Richard the Third-there's nothing he can't do, nothing. Just nothing.
Vivien Leigh
I don't know what that Method is. Acting is life, to me, and should be.
Vivien Leigh
I loved fencing and dancing and elocution.
Vivien Leigh
Dear Lord, I'm so grateful I'm still loved.
