More quotes by Elaine Stritch
Everybody's got a sack of rocks.
Elaine Stritch
I certainly was not the romantic lead. I couldn't be that, because I was not that good looking. And that is something about Hollywood that I do not like at all. Why can't a woman who is just normally good looking fall in love? I mean, everybody in the movies is so good looking.
Elaine Stritch
I love audiences. My God, the best friends in the world!
Elaine Stritch
Onstage, nothing is as important as truth, nothing. As soon as you lie, they know it.
Elaine Stritch
I don't think there's any thrill in the world like doing work you're good at.
Elaine Stritch
The terrifying thing in my life is that I am just an actress. And I have to keep pushing it and getting approval, approval, approval or I don’t think I’m worth two cents. And I am starting to get over it, thank God. And I’m just sad because I don’t have many years left and I wish I had a longer space of time to think that Elaine Stritch is okay.
Elaine Stritch
I felt that I committed myself too much. I promised too much. But that way it's exciting.
Elaine Stritch
I don't have a great talent for explaining myself in acting because I can't explain it.
Elaine Stritch
There will always be ladies who lunch. Always. And apparently they live a long time.
Elaine Stritch
Woody Allen is a better actor than anybody from the Actors Studio, and he can be anybody he says he is.
Elaine Stritch
Tony Bennett said to me, Wow, your talent is amazing. Maybe he's a bore, maybe he's a jerk, but when he said that to me, I didn't need anything more than that.
Elaine Stritch
New York is like a disco, but without the music
Elaine Stritch
This age thing is all up to you. It's like happiness is up to you. You just have to understand what it is before you get it.
Elaine Stritch
Bette Davis taught Hollywood to follow an actress instead of the actress following the camera, and she's probably the best movie actress there's ever been.
Elaine Stritch
It gets tiring being a smartass.
Elaine Stritch
People will always be around to tell you you're no good or you're wrong or unwise to keep doing what you want to do. They're wrong. They're always wrong. Keep going.
Elaine Stritch
I compare Stephen Sondheim with humor, because humor is unanalyzable. You can't analyze humor. You just have to get through it.
Elaine Stritch
I get sick of saying how hard everything is. It's hard to get up in the morning. Everything's hard. Everything takes effort.
Elaine Stritch
I have not had any of that surgical stuff. I am too curious to find out exactly how I progress every day of my life naturally. That is what fascinates me.
Elaine Stritch
I like to keep active. I've got too much energy not to.
Elaine Stritch
