Elsa Lanchester's quotes
- Facts like that make one feel blue-eyed and normal.
- Stardom is all hard work, aspirins and purgatives.
- My parents were always a bit arty. They were "advanced". They supported pacifism, vegetarianism, socialism, atheism and all that.
- There is no such thing as a person that nothing has happened to, and each person's story is as different as his fingerprints.
- It annoys me when mothers drag the poor dears to me and demand the children say something to Frankenstein's bride. Can you imagine an actress being overexposed by a picture she made 40 years ago?
- [on her "open marriage" to Charles Laughton] We both needed other company. I met his young men, and I had a young man around and Charles didn't even argue.
- [on Maggie Smith] She's better on stage, from a distance. On a screen, close up, she makes you want to dive for cover.
