More quotes by 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
My love for ice cream emerged at an early age - and has never left!
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
My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.
Ginger Rogers

Ginger Rogers
I did everything he did but backwards & in high heels.
Ginger Rogers

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
People are still people no matter how you cut it.
Ginger Rogers
Perhaps I am old-fashioned, but black and white films still hold an affectionate place in my heart they have an incomparable mystique and mood.
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 you're happy, you don't count the years.
Ginger Rogers
There are no small parts. Only small actors.
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.
