More quotes by Elaine Stritch
There's nothing attractive about doing a documentary. Nothing. It's hard, hard work, and I find having all the attention of the day on me a very unattractive proposition.
Elaine Stritch
All you have to do is say, 'I'm going home,' and you're the most popular girl at the party.
Elaine Stritch
I like to keep active. I've got too much energy not to.
Elaine Stritch
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 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.
Elaine Stritch
All of the writing on '30 Rock' is a joy to go into. It's pretty hot stuff.
Elaine Stritch

Elaine Stritch
I find it easier to abstain than do a little bit of anything. I'm not a 'little bit' kind of dame. I want it all, whatever I do.
Elaine Stritch
Bette Davis taught Hollywood to follow an actress instead of the actress following the camera, and she's probably the best movie actress there's ever been.
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
Everybody's got a sack of rocks.
Elaine Stritch
I never found anyone who could look after me as well as I could look after myself.
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.
Elaine Stritch
Audiences are not strangers to me. They're the best friends I've got in my life.
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.
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
