More quotes by Ginger Rogers
People are still people no matter how you cut it.
Ginger Rogers
Like most actors, I've always been grateful for Chinese restaurants they were often the only places that stayed open late enough for performers to get hot food after the show.
Ginger Rogers
I enjoy sports, and love being involved in any outdoor sport from volleyball to softball. I'm not being immodest when I say I'm a natural athlete.
Ginger Rogers
When two people love each other, they don't look at each other, they look in the same direction.
Ginger Rogers
I do everything the man does, only backwards and in high heels!
Ginger Rogers
I try to feed my hunger rather than my appetite.
Ginger Rogers
I traveled with my mother, Lela, and there was never enough money. I always had to roll down my silk stockings and carry a doll when we bought train tickets so I could go half-fare. If we had $3, we always figured how to tip for the trunks and still eat.
Ginger Rogers
Over the years, myths were built up about my relationship with Fred Astaire. The general public thought he was a Svengali, who snapped his fingers for his little Trilby to obey in their eyes, my career was his creation.
Ginger Rogers
I made my last motion picture in March 1965 for Magna Pictures. 'Harlow,' based on the life of actress Jean Harlow... I didn't know at the time that 'Harlow' would be my last motion picture.
Ginger Rogers
I don't know which I like best. I love the applause on the stage. But pictures are so fascinating - you reach many millions through them. And you make more money too.
Ginger Rogers
I won't go to movies with permissiveness, four-letter words, or violence. Show me 'E.T.' and 'Chariots of Fire' instead. That's entertainment, not exploitation of the human body.
Ginger Rogers
The only way to enjoy anything in this life is to earn it first.
Ginger Rogers
Sure, jets are fast and economical, but, oh my, what fun we've lost and what leisure we've sacrificed in the race to efficiency. Somehow, stepping onto a plane and zooming across the United States in a matter of hours doesn't hold a candle to the dear, old-fashioned train ride.
Ginger Rogers
At the age of ten, I thought if a boy kissed you on the lips, you would have a baby, and I surely wasn't the only youngster who believed that!
Ginger Rogers
I had been making films for almost ten years, and the head men at RKO thought of me only in terms of musicals. I found no fault with that, except I just couldn't stand being typed or pigeonholed as only a singing and dancing girl. I wanted to extend my range.
Ginger Rogers
Looking back at my life's voyage, I can only say that it has been a golden trip.
Ginger Rogers
Beauty is a valuable asset, but it is not the whole cheese.
Ginger Rogers
When you're happy, you don't count the years.
Ginger Rogers
My love for ice cream emerged at an early age - and has never left!
Ginger Rogers
My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.
