Lillian Hellman

I cannot and will not cut my conscience to fit this year's fashion.

Cynicism is an unpleasant way of saying the truth.

There are people who eat the earth and eat all the people on it like in the Bible with the locusts. And other people who stand around and watch them eat.

If every time you engage in a sex act, you go into a confession box, you will never accept your own sexuality.

I have always had confidence in my own ability.

I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated.
