More quotes by Elvis Presley
I don't like to be called Elvis the Pelvis. It's one of the most childish expressions I've ever heard coming from an adult. But if they wanna call me that, there's nothin' I can do about it, so I just have to accept it.
Elvis Presley
Man, that record came out and was real big in Memphis. They started playing it, and it got real big. Don't know why-the lyrics had no meaning.
Elvis Presley
Man, I really like Vegas.
Elvis Presley
I feel so alone sometimes. The night is quiet for me. I'd love to be able to sleep. I'll probably not rest. I have no need for all this. Help me, Lord.
Elvis Presley
More than anything else, I want the folks back at home to think right of me.
Elvis Presley
Your kisses lift me higher...like the sweet song of a choir. You light my morning sky, with burning love.
Elvis Presley
Happiness is knowin' you've done a good job, whether it's professional or for another person.
Elvis Presley
I forgot to remember to forget.
Elvis Presley
The first time that I appeared on stage, it scared me to death. I really didn't know what all the yelling was about. I didn't realize that my body was moving. It's a natural thing to me. So to the manager backstage I said, What'd I do? What'd I do? And he said, Whatever it is, go back and do it again.
Elvis Presley
Just because I managed to do a little something, I don't want anyone back home to think I got the big head.
Elvis Presley
I'll be a fool or a wiseman, my darling, you hold the key. Anyway you want me, that's how I will be.
Elvis Presley
Ma'am, I'm not tryin' to be sexy. Ah didn't have any clear idea of trying to sell sex. It's just my way of expressin' how I feel when I move around. It's all leg movement. I don't do nothin' with my body.
Elvis Presley
Fame and fortune, how empty they can be.
Elvis Presley
Some people tap their feet, some people snap their fingers, and some people sway back and forth. I just sorta do 'em all together, I guess.
Elvis Presley
I miss my singing career very much.
Elvis Presley
I did the Ed Sullivan show four times. I did the Steve Allen show. I did the Jackie Gleason show.
Elvis Presley
Somebody does somethin' stupid, that's human. They don't stop when they see it's wrong, that's a fool.
Elvis Presley
The Lord can give, and the Lord can take away. I might be herding sheep next year.
Elvis Presley
Envy someone an' it pulls you down. Admire them and it builds you up. Which makes more sense?
Elvis Presley
I think I have something tonight that's not quite correct for evening wear. Blue suede shoes.
Elvis Presley
