More quotes by Fred Astaire
If we followed our own advice, we'd be successful.
Fred Astaire
Of course, Ginger was able to accomplish sex through dance. We told more through our movements instead of the big clinch. We did it all in the dance.
Fred Astaire
This search for what you want is like tracking something that doesn't want to be tracked. It takes time to get a dance right, to create something memorable.
Fred Astaire
I am bit sending messages with my feet. All I ever wanted was not to come up empty. I did it for the dough and the old applause.
Fred Astaire
I inherited the knowledge that sometimes (talents) not only skip a generation, but sometimes run screaming from it. Ironically, it was the singing non-ability that helped feed my love of laughter.
Fred Astaire
If the dance is right, there shouldn't be a single superfluous movement.
Fred Astaire
I don't remember anybody ever pointing me out as a dancing prodigy, but I played a not bad second base.
Fred Astaire
Why didn't you tell me I was in love with you?
Fred Astaire
Be yourself-but don't be conspicuous.
Fred Astaire
I have no desire to prove anything by my work. I have never used it as an outlet or as a means of expressing myself. I just dance.
Fred Astaire
It takes time to get a dance right, to create something memorable.
Fred Astaire
There comes a day when people begin to say, 'Why doesn't that old duffer retire?' I want to get out while they're still saying Astaire is a hell of a dancer.
Fred Astaire
Oh, God! That boy moves in a very exceptional way. That's the greatest dancer of the century.
Fred Astaire
I'm just a hoofer with a spare set of tails.
Fred Astaire
Do it big, do it right, and do it with style.
Fred Astaire
And that love that wrinkles your nose touches my foolish heart.
Fred Astaire
Dancing is a sweat job.
Fred Astaire
I had some ballet training but didn't like it. It was like a game to me.
Fred Astaire
I often take a brand-new suit or hat and throw it up against the wall a few times to get that stiff, square newness out of it.
Fred Astaire
Oh, there's no such thing as my favorite performance. I can't sit here today and look back, and say, Top Hat was better than Easter Parade or any of the others. I just don't look back, period. When I finish with a project, I say 'all right, that's that. What's next?'
Fred Astaire
