More quotes by Elaine Stritch
I don't think I'm gonna die tomorrow or even two weeks from now, or even ever. I just don't know - who the hell knows what's gonna happen to them? Nobody! Isn't that comforting? Nobody has a clue. I like that we don't know. And I like that it's somebody else's decision, not mine.
Elaine Stritch
Everybody's got a sack of rocks.
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
There's something exciting about being afraid.
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
All of the writing on '30 Rock' is a joy to go into. It's pretty hot stuff.
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 was so happy I didn't have to work that night. That was the truth, because show business is about the hardest profession in the world.
Elaine Stritch
Fear is the base of what everybody does wrong in their lives.
Elaine Stritch
I don't have a great talent for explaining myself in acting because I can't explain it.
Elaine Stritch
For me, going to London is like coming home. In fact, I've often entertained the idea of ending my days there.
Elaine Stritch
Audiences are not strangers to me. They're the best friends I've got in my life.
Elaine Stritch
I don't dislike the way I look. I think I look fine. I think I look extraordinary for 88. And I've got energy. Out of my way.
