More quotes by 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
During my seven-year contract with RKO, there were seven different studio presidents, from David O. Selznick to Charles W. Koerner. You literally had to check the name on the door so as not to call the new boss by the former boss's name.
Ginger Rogers
The kids today, they think they can dance with their faces.
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
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
What's all this talk about me being teamed with Ginger Rogers? I will not have it Leland--I did not go into pictures to be teamed with her or anyone else, and if that is the program in mind for me I will not stand for it. I don't mind making another picture with her but as for this teams idea, it's out.
Ginger Rogers
There are no small parts. Only small actors.
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
I did everything he did but backwards & in high heels.
Ginger Rogers
Beauty is a valuable asset, but it is not the whole cheese.
Ginger Rogers
Hollywood is like an empty wastebasket.
Ginger Rogers
My love for ice cream emerged at an early age - and has never left!
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
When you're happy, you don't count the years.
Ginger Rogers
One thing I turn my back on totally is the unsavory atmosphere at most discos.
Ginger Rogers
I try to feed my hunger rather than my appetite.
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
My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.
Ginger Rogers
I believe in living each day as it comes, to the best of my ability. When it's done, I put it away, remembering that there will be a tomorrow to take it's place. If I have any philosophy, that's it. To me it's not a fatalistic attitude.
Ginger Rogers
The only way to enjoy anything in this life is to earn it first.
