I've always put my own money into my own shows because today, if you want to stay in the business, you have to produce your own product because there is not enough production and enough people that create today so if you wanna work you produce it or you stay home.

I do twenty minutes every time the refrigerator door opens and the light comes on.

I miss the movies. Still, I understood that my kind of movie has had its day. I thought it was over for me.

I tour all year, 42 weeks a year, so it's hard for me to remember every place I play.

Gene Kelly was a great dancer and I was lucky to be in 'Singin' in the Rain.' He was my teacher when I was 17 years old, when he was 37 years old. He taught me everything.

[Las Vegas in the early 1960] was thrilling, exciting... I would describe it as very Parisian.

For 'Singin' in the Rain,' I bought most of the costumes - the 'Fit as a Fiddle' costumes and the 'Make Them Laugh' Donald O'Connor outfits and the 'Good Morning, Good Morning' clothes we danced in.
