I never thought about the gayness. Liberace just looked like he was having so much fun. And that whole idea of talking directly to the audience, you just went along with him. He made you happy.

I'm impressed with the people from Chicago. Hollywood is hype, New York is talk, Chicago is work.

Never knew how poor I was until I started making money.

Every empire eventually falls.
