I’ve had Six Juleps, and I’m Not Even Sober

Actor Tallulah BankheadImage via Wikipedia

Tallulah Bankhead (1902-1968)

Nobody can be exactly like me. Sometimes even I have trouble doing it.

It’s the good girls who keep diaries; the bad girls never have the time.

I’m a single-standard girl. I found no surprises in the Kinsey Report.

Daddy warned me about drinking and men, but he never said anything about women and drugs.

I’ve had six juleps, and I’m not even sober.

When I was sixteen, dahling, I had a shoebox full of cocaine.

About Tallulah – A day away from Tallulah is like a month in the country. – Howard Dietz
