More quotes by Debbie Reynolds

My favorite [costume in collection] is the white dress Marilyn Monroe wore in the subway breeze scene in 'The Seven Year Itch.'
Debbie Reynolds
Image
Marilyn Monroe was taken advantage of by most of the men that knew her, including Frank Sinatra and Joe DiMaggio, whom I also knew very well.
Debbie Reynolds

I've always put my own money into my own shows because today, if you want to stay in the business, you have to produce your own product because there is not enough production and enough people that create today so if you wanna work you produce it or you stay home.

I'm very strict with myself. I'm an Aries and sort of a challenge to myself.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I always avoid not working.
Debbie Reynolds

I have the largest private collection in the world [of Hollywood memorabilia].

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

Donald O'Connor was in the film [ 'Singin' in the Rain' ] as well, and he was only 27 years old. So we were closer in age, and had more fun together on the set. Gene was more my teacher and mentor.

I don't think anything I could ever do could make Gene Kelly look better than he was.

I'll be like Irving Berlin: There's no business like show business.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
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.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I never thought about doing men. Never.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I loved Frank [O'Connor], he was wonderful...just don't get on his bad side. I don't think I would have wanted to marry him, but I probably should have since I married idiots anyway.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
If I ever stop working, I might have a problem. But I never seem to be able to stop working.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I'm not a big shoot-em-up, bang-bang. I like romantic films.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
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.

That's what a writer does they make things up and that makes for good reading.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
I tour all year, 42 weeks a year, so it's hard for me to remember every place I play.

I've always had my guard. I have my cook and my guard. I want to eat, and I want to live.
