Some people think reality must be constantly depressing, but I think reality is something you rise above.
Liza Minnelli
Image
Dream on it. Let your mind take you to places you would like to go, and then think about it and plan it and celebrate the possibilities. And don't listen to anyone who doesn't know how to dream.

I believe all drunks go to heaven, because they've been through hell on Earth.

I'm fine, and my hips are fine. My false knee is fine. My false hips are fine. Everything's cooking.

I'm always looking at the next thing. I'm too curious to look back...it's very hard to be unhappy when you're curious and grateful. You're busy. You don't have time to be unhappy. My biggest talent is I know who is more talented than I am. I find them and I go to them, and I learn.

She (Judy Garland) was a friend of mine, a trying friend, but a friend. That is what I tell myself: She did everything she ever wanted to do. She never really denied herself anything for me. See, I say, she had a wonderful life she did what she wanted to do. And I have no right to change her fulfillment into my misery. I'm on my own broom now.

Now, having had this experience, I can't say really what they were looking for. I don't know their minds. But every time I see a reality show, it seems that the most entertaining parts on other reality shows are when they make their guests look foolish.

Initially, I wanted to be an ice skater, but then when I was 13 I saw Bye Bye Birdie, and that was it - I wanted to be on Broadway.

I consider myself an actress first, a dancer second, and a singer third. Why? Because the dancer needs a reason to move-that's the actor informing the dancer. So I worked on my acting and gradually developed a singing voice.

Anything is possible in this world. I really believe that.

He [Gene Kelly] once told me dancing was a man's game, as much of a sport as baseball itself. And he made us believe that. He changed our minds and suddenly, all of America wanted to dance just like Gene Kelly.

(in the film That's Entertainment! - 1974) Thank God for film, it can capture a moment and hold it there forever. If anyone ever asks you: Who were they? or What made them so good? I think a reel of film answers that question.

I rely on regular chiropractic care to keep in shape for my strenuous type of acting and singing.

But God really did bless me, you know? He really said, All right. Come on. I'm still waiting for you. Get over here. Get over here.
