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.

More quotes by Ginger Rogers
People are still people no matter how you cut it.
Ginger Rogers
The only way to enjoy anything in this life is to earn it first.
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
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 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 cannot abide stupidity, in myself or in others.
Ginger Rogers
My love for ice cream emerged at an early age - and has never left!
Ginger Rogers
I do everything the man does, only backwards and in high heels!
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
I believe in dressing for the occasion. There's a time for sweater, sneakers and Levis and a time for the full-dress jazz.
Ginger Rogers
If I've learned any one lesson from life, it's this: If you don't stand for something, you will stand for anything.
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 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
My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.
Ginger Rogers
When you're happy, you don't count the years.
Ginger Rogers
The most important thing in anyone's life is to be giving something. The quality I can give is fun, joy and happiness. This is my gift.
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
I don't disagree with seeing a Rubens of a nude body, but I don't believe in a nude body in action. With Rubens, thank goodness, they aren't in action.
Ginger Rogers
When two people love each other, they don't look at each other, they look in the same direction.
