More quotes by Debbie Reynolds

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 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.

As you train and as you develop your talents, you do get better, hopefully, or you get out of the business.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
Do I run around deploring the world? No. I'm just not into it. I was brought up that way.

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.

I'm not a big shoot-em-up, bang-bang. I like romantic films.

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 just keep traveling and doing live shows.

Weight has never been a problem with me because when you dance, it just stays off.

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

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.

Near the end, she [Marilyn Monroe] was badly treated by Fox Studios, during the 'Let's Make Love' film shoot in 1960, they threw her off the set because she had a cold.

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