Marilyn Monroe was a very sweet girl, she was a very innocent girl.

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.

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.

Do I run around deploring the world? No. I'm just not into it. I was brought up that way.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Image
We've lost a lot of our great stars. I can't hang out with those who aren't here. The phone service to heaven is so bad, you know. But I get to visit with their memories.

Anything worthwhile is hard, and dancing is very hard, and if you've ever studied dancing of any kind you'd know that to be in precision, three people dancing together.

As you train and as you develop your talents, you do get better, hopefully, or you get out of the business.
Debbie Reynolds
Image
A lot of people don't feel like doing very much. Or one project is really all they can do at one time. I can have five or six things going at the same time. It doesn't bother me or tire me, but sometimes it does rattle me.

[Las Vegas in the early 1960] was thrilling, exciting... I would describe it as very Parisian.

That's what a writer does they make things up and that makes for good reading.

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

I tour all year, 42 weeks a year, so it's hard for me to remember every place I play.

I always avoid not working.

Singin' in the Rain (1952) and childbirth were the two hardest things I ever had to do in my life.
