Ginger Rogers
Image
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
Image
The only way to enjoy anything in this life is to earn it first.
Ginger Rogers
Image
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.

There are no small parts. Only small actors.
Ginger Rogers
Image
If I've learned any one lesson from life, it's this: If you don't stand for something, you will stand for anything.
