Every actor. every director, everybody needs an Oscar. You have to have that little statue in Hollywood or else you are nothing.

I've had a lot of unhappiness in my life — and a lot of happiness. Who doesn't? Maybe I've learned enough to be able to guide my daughters.

I guess the only jewels of my life were the pictures I made with Fred Astaire.

When you're in love you're living, you matter.

All I wanted was just what everybody else wants, you know, to be loved.

Whatever you write about me, don't make it sad.

From the time I was three and a half... as soon as I could stand on my own feet, I was given dance lessons.
