Lila Lee – photos and quotes

“Emotional debauches sound much less offensive than being temperamental. One frequently hears of this or that player being temperamental. That perhaps, is one of his or her great assets. Perhaps a nuisance at times but invaluable, nevertheless because it makes that person emotionally qualified for his profession. I believe that every actor has temperament to some degree.” — Lila Lee

“It was all there to have and to hold — and to lose.” — Lila Lee, reflecting on her life in the movies.
