If you're a dancer, study singing. You have to do everything and do it well. You have to study acting. You have to study all of it. You have to find workshops, get out on the stage...and fail.

More quotes by Debbie Reynolds
Singin' in the Rain (1952) and childbirth were the two hardest things I ever had to do in my life.
Debbie Reynolds
Travel is hard, but entertaining is joy.
Debbie Reynolds
I have over five thousand costumes and props and cars, and I have a twenty-five thousand square foot warehouse full of memorabilia.
Debbie Reynolds
I loved going to films, but as far as a movie buff, when I came into the movies at 16, life changed a little bit for me, from an onlooker to a person that lived within the industry. So now I would call myself a different sort of fan.
Debbie Reynolds
You probably only know what you've read [about Marilyn Monroe].You didn't know her. The people who talk about her didn't know her either.
Debbie Reynolds
I loved working with Bette Davis. Bette Davis was great to work with and a wonderful teacher, and very kind to me. We became good friends.
Debbie Reynolds
I'm just a movie fan. I used to go to the movies just to watch movies.
Debbie Reynolds
I'm not a big shoot-em-up, bang-bang. I like romantic films.
Debbie Reynolds
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
I'm very strict with myself. I'm an Aries and sort of a challenge to myself.
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.
Debbie Reynolds
The young people today are really so creative and talented - I mean, the ones who are really are and they get together and produce and create. They're an entirely different breed from what I was when I was their age.
Debbie Reynolds
Marilyn Monroe was a very sweet girl, she was a very innocent girl.
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.
Debbie Reynolds
For 'Singin' in the Rain,' I bought most of the costumes - the 'Fit as a Fiddle' costumes and the 'Make Them Laugh' Donald O'Connor outfits and the 'Good Morning, Good Morning' clothes we danced in.
Debbie Reynolds
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.
Debbie Reynolds
No one has ever put anything into my suitcase.
Debbie Reynolds
Weight has never been a problem with me because when you dance, it just stays off.
Debbie Reynolds
I don't think anything I could ever do could make Gene Kelly look better than he was.
Debbie Reynolds
I think one of my favourite films is 'Dark Victory' with Bette Davis. Why? She was so wonderful in that film. And maybe I just want a good cry once in a while without having to go through a divorce.
Debbie Reynolds
