Jane Russell's quotes

  • They held up The Outlaw (1943) for five years. And Howard Hughes had me doing publicity for it every day, five days a week for five years.
  • Publicity can be terrible. But only if you don't have any.
  • Sometimes the photographers would pose me in a low-necked nightgown and tell me to bend down and pick up the pails. They were not shooting the pails.
  • The girl with the summer-hot lips . . . and the winter-cold heart.
  • The music these kids play nowadays, it's nothing but screaming and pounding drums! You can't hear the words, and that's just as well, because the words stink!
  • [what she thinks of Hollywood liberals George Clooney, Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn I think they're not well.
  • [why modern Hollywood is so liberal] I think the '60s have happened between when I was there and now. A lot of the actors and actresses, their parents were '60s people and they just have a Democratic left wing--they flipped.
  • [2003] These days I am a teetotal, mean-spirited, right-wing, narrow-minded, conservative Christian bigot, but not a racist.
  • People should never, ever have an abortion. Don't talk to me about it being a woman's right to choose what she does with her own body. The choice is between life and death.
  • [2001] I want to save America. I do not want a one-world order, a one-world government, at all. I think that our Founding Fathers had exactly the right idea, and we've got a great country, and let's go back to God.
