"I'd rather be strongly wrong than weakly right."

--

Tallulah Bankhead

“...what was the good of being a movie werewolf? You howled at the moon; you couldn't remember what you did, and then somebody shot you.”
“There is a very definite Russian heart in me; that never dies. I think you're born and you live your life with it and you die with it. I'm very much an American - my books tend to be about American things, but inside there's that sort of tortured, long-suffering, aching, constantly analysing Russian soul underneath the happy American exterior.”
“It is not the position, but the disposition.”
“I still give my friends relationship advice, of course, and I'm not bad at it. 'Anyone's crisis but mine' is my motto.”
“As my own father was sick, and miserably tied to his invalid's chair, he would have been abandoned had not an old servant performed for him a so-called service of love. My mother gave parties while he was perishing in solitude, and amused herself while he was suffering bitter agonies”
“I respect music, I do. I love it.”
“Usually I'm the one who does the covers. And I just said, man, it would be nice to see what somebody else could do, outside of this thing. A fresher look. And I never, in a million years, would have come up with this. Believe me!”
“I was very lucky to get well known much later in life. You need to have flopped quite a few times to get a sense of how little any of it has to do with you.”
