I like to keep active. I've got too much energy not to.

Elaine Stritch
There will always be ladies who lunch. Always. And apparently they live a long time.
Elaine Stritch
It gets tiring being a smartass.
Elaine Stritch
I don't want to see a movie twice. I don't want to do anything twice.
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 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.
Elaine Stritch
I love audiences. My God, the best friends in the world!
Elaine Stritch
Two drinks a day. Two drinks a day. TWO DRINKS A DAY! It doesn't work! Not when you want eleven, and not when you start shopping for wine glasses in the vase department at Bloomingdales.
