More quotes by Liza Minnelli
To the general public, show business may just mean the artistic part, but the dollar and cents element is the reality every performer has to face.
Liza Minnelli
I'm not a very good singer. I just know how to present a song, and honey, I think I've been through enough to do it right.
Liza Minnelli
I came out of the womb looking for the camera angle
Liza Minnelli
I have two false hips, a wired-up right knee, two crushed discs and scoliosis. If I don't dance, I seize up.
Liza Minnelli
Some people think reality must be constantly depressing, but I think reality is something you rise above.
Liza Minnelli
Well, when I was growing up it was Ozzie and Harriet on TV - nobody's parents were like that.
Liza Minnelli
I rely on regular chiropractic care to keep in shape for my strenuous type of acting and singing.
Liza Minnelli
(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.
Liza Minnelli
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.
Liza Minnelli
Growing up in Hollywood it seemed like every kid was the child of some star. We had no idea that other people would think we were special, because there was no other lifestyle to compare it to.
Liza Minnelli
What I'm saying is that I tried very hard to give them my reality and my reality is kind of interesting.
Liza Minnelli
Maybe what a gay icon is, is a person who is rooted for — in other words, cheered on — by people who feel different.
Liza Minnelli
Well, we have theatrical parties. It's not me singing. People like to get up and jam on the piano.
Liza Minnelli
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.
Liza Minnelli
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.
Liza Minnelli
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.
Liza Minnelli
I believe all drunks go to heaven, because they've been through hell on Earth.
Liza Minnelli
My mother gave me my drive but my father gave me my dreams.
Liza Minnelli
You don't know how to handle anything today, because you have to go to jail to get some press or fall down drunk.
Liza Minnelli
You have to work hard for it, but first you have to want it, and then you have to dream on it.
Liza Minnelli
