The Less I Behave Like Whistler's Mother

[on Being Asked In Her Later Years If She Were Tallulah:] I'm What's Left Of Her, Dahling.

I'm The Foe Of Moderation, The Champion Of Excess. If I May Lift A Line From A Die-hard Whose Identity Is Lost In The Shuffle, 'i'd Rather Be Strongly Wrong Than Weakly Right.'

Acting Is A Form Of Confession.

In My Lifetime I've Been To Bed With Men, Women, And Odd Pieces Of Furniture.

I've Been Called Many Things, But Never An Intellectual.
