I am not influenced by other human beings. But I am inspired.
Elaine Stritch
I have no intention of retiring. Even my blood sugar is better when I'm working.

I always say, 'If you can't give a reason for the banana peel being in the alley, then don't have the comic slide over it.' Do you understand what I mean? First explain how the banana peel got there quickly. And then there's a reason for all the comedy.

Elaine Stritch
I don't want to see a movie twice. I don't want to do anything twice.
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 love holidays in New York. I love `em. I want to celebrate something all the time and New York has holidays for every day of the week, practically. I like holidays in New York City.
Elaine Stritch
Everybody's got a sack of rocks.
Elaine Stritch
I want to settle down this last time. I say last, because I don't think I'm in any condition to live a long time from now. The bell's gonna ring pretty soon.
