If I ever stop working, I might have a problem. But I never seem to be able to stop working.

I would never stop watching film. The reason why I say I like the old ones is I like the subject matter better. I thought they had more variety to them, they had more romantic comedies and things that appealed to me more.

I wasn't wattching television when I was a youngster; there was the radio.

The heads of the studios, like Louis B. Mayer, didn't want to create any more musical stars. So Bobby [Fosse] left and went to New York City to be a choreographer, and created brilliant work.

I never thought about doing men. Never.

I did win [on a contest]. And that started me on a new path, and into show business.

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