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
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.

Why haven't I made more movies? Nobody asked me.
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
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.
