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.

More quotes by Ginger Rogers
Looking back at my life's voyage, I can only say that it has been a golden trip.
Ginger Rogers
People are still people no matter how you cut it.
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
When two people love each other, they don't look at each other, they look in the same direction.
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 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
Beauty is a valuable asset, but it is not the whole cheese.
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
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
My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.
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
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
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
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
You bring out a lot of your own thoughts and attitudes when acting. I think a great deal of it has to do with the inner you.
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.
