More quotes by Elaine Stritch

Elaine Stritch
I am not influenced by other human beings. But I am inspired.
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
New York is like a disco, but without the music
Elaine Stritch

Elaine Stritch
I love audiences. My God, the best friends in the world!
Elaine Stritch
You cannot tell an audience a lie. They know it before you do before it's out of your mouth, they know it's a lie.
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
