More quotes by 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
Singin' in the Rain (1952) and childbirth were the two hardest things I ever had to do in my life.
Debbie Reynolds
I really can't answer that off the top of my head, my favorite movies. Each one individually was wonderfully made, wonderfully directed, wonderfully written, wonderfully acted, and each one was entirely different.I like romantic movies. I sort of go for the older movies.
Debbie Reynolds
I've always had my guard. I have my cook and my guard. I want to eat, and I want to live.
Debbie Reynolds
[Bob Fosse] was a temperamental fellow - it was his way or the highway.
Debbie Reynolds
Live is exciting, live is real, the people are there.
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
Do I run around deploring the world? No. I'm just not into it. I was brought up that way.
Debbie Reynolds
Weight has never been a problem with me because when you dance, it just stays off.
Debbie Reynolds
I've always had life threats, and they've always been for real.
Debbie Reynolds
I have the largest private collection in the world [of Hollywood memorabilia].
Debbie Reynolds
[Marilyn Monroe] was a bit temperamental, a little diva-like, but she didn't deserve what she got.
Debbie Reynolds
I don't think anything I could ever do could make Gene Kelly look better than he was.
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
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
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
I don't give parties, and I'm not in that social scene. I couldn't care less.
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
My belief also is that Marilyn Monroe passed away long before she should have left us.
Debbie Reynolds
I never thought about doing men. Never.
