More quotes by Debbie Reynolds
As you train and as you develop your talents, you do get better, hopefully, or you get out of the business.
Debbie Reynolds
I don't give parties, and I'm not in that social scene. I couldn't care less.
Debbie Reynolds
I think the press does, too it's just the few crazies and paparazzi that give them a bad name. Real writers write good things. My daughter's a writer, and she's a quality writer.
Debbie Reynolds
I never thought about doing men. Never.
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
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.
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
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
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 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
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.
Debbie Reynolds
I have the largest private collection in the world [of Hollywood memorabilia].
Debbie Reynolds
I just keep traveling and doing live shows.
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
It's fun to get back to acting.
Debbie Reynolds
Every performer should learn a little bit of everything. Most performers today only play the guitar.
Debbie Reynolds
Singin' in the Rain (1952) and childbirth were the two hardest things I ever had to do in my life.
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
If I ever stop working, I might have a problem. But I never seem to be able to stop working.
Debbie Reynolds
