We've lost a lot of our great stars. I can't hang out with those who aren't here. The phone service to heaven is so bad, you know. But I get to visit with their memories.
Debbie Reynolds

I don't think it's the fans, I think it's the fact that they get paid a lot of money for a picture of you doing something wrong. They don't seem to be interested in anything good any more.I think people appreciate what you do.

I'm just a movie fan. I used to go to the movies just to watch movies.

[Marilyn Monroe] was a bit temperamental, a little diva-like, but she didn't deserve what she got.

I also have a pair of ruby red slippers from the 'Wizard of Oz' and Dorothy's gingham dress...and on and on. I saved as much as I could and still do, because people are still interested in it.

Years ago nudity was not done in the United States. But during that late 1950s era in Vegas it began at the Tropicana, and spread to the other venues. Now the showgirls are going away again and Cirque du Soleil, the magic acts and the animal acts reign in Las Vegas. But I don't think you'll completely lose the boobie shows.

I've always had life threats, and they've always been for real.
Debbie Reynolds

I'm very strict with myself. I'm an Aries and sort of a challenge to myself.
Debbie Reynolds

Do I run around deploring the world? No. I'm just not into it. I was brought up that way.

When I was doing theater in the 1950's, 60's and 70's we weren't allowed to film any of the shows that I did, it was against union rules. It was a stupid law, because so much is lost. We now have no record of these famous stage plays, so it turned out to be very narrow-minded thinking.

I had a lot of fun with Frank Sinatra, because he was such a hooligan, and so to himself, he was the king, and everything was his way, and I enjoyed watching that.
Debbie Reynolds

[Bob Fosse] was a temperamental fellow - it was his way or the highway.
Debbie Reynolds

I stopped making movies because I don't like taking my clothes off. Maybe it's realism, but in my opinion, it's utter filth.

I think you should control yourself a little bit, so you can walk, and when you die, you can walk to your own funeral.
