There have been only two geniuses in the world. Willie Mays and Willie Shakespeare. But, darling, I think you'd better put Shakespeare first.   - Actress Tallulah Bankhead (1962)

Here's a rule I recommend: Never practice two vices at once.
       Tallulah Bankhead
  
I'm as pure as the driven slush.
       Tallulah Bankhead

If I had to live my life again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner.
      Tallulah Bankhead
  
It's the good girls who keep diaries; the bad girls never have the time.
    Tallulah Bankhead

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

1. Achievement
You can do anything you set your mind to when you have vision, determination, and an endless supply of expendable labor.

2. Arrogance
The best leaders inspire by example. When that's not an option, brute intimidation works pretty well, too.

3. Beauty
If you're attractive enough on the outside, people will forgive you for being irritating to the core.

4. Change
When the winds of change blow hard enough, the most trivial of things can become deadly projectiles.

5. Cluelessness
There are no stupid questions, but there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots.

6. Conformity
When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other.

7. Dare to Slack
When birds fly in the right formation, they need only exert half the effort. Even in nature, teamwork results in collective laziness.

8. Defeat
For every winner, there are dozens of losers. Odds are you're one of them.

9. Delusions
There is no greater joy than soaring high on the wings of your dreams, except maybe the joy of watching a dreamer who has nowhere to land but in the ocean of reality.

10. Destiny
You were meant for me. Perhaps as a punishment.

11. Do it Later
The early worm is for the birds.

12. Flattery
If you want to get to the top, prepare to kiss a lot of the bottom.

13. Futility
You'll always miss 100% of the shots you don't take, and, statistically speaking, 99% of the shots you do.

14. Humiliation
The harder you try, the dumber you look

15. Idiocy
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

16. Individuality
Always remember that you are unique. Just like everybody else.

17. Losing
If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style.

18. Mediocrity
It takes a lot less time and most people won't notice the difference until it's too late.

19. Mistakes
It could be that the purpose of your life is only to serve as a warning to others.

20. Pessimism
Every dark cloud has a silver lining, but lightning kills hundreds of people each year who are trying to find it.

21. Pressure
It can turn a lump of coal into a flawless diamond, or an average person into a perfect basketcase.

22. Procrastination
Hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now.

23. Strife
As long as we have each other, we'll never run out of problems.

24. Underachievement
The tallest blade of grass is the first to be cut by the lawnmower.

25. Wishes
When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. Unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the Earth which will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much hosed no matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteor.
