Rosalind Russell's quotes
- Acting is standing up naked and turning around very slowly.
- Success is a public affair. Failure is a private funeral.
- At MGM, there was a first wave of top stars, and a second wave to replace them in case they got difficult. I was second in line of defence, behind Myrna Loy.
- Flops are part of a life's menu and I've never been a girl to miss out on any of the courses.
- In all those types of films I wore a tan suit, a grey suit, a beige suit and then a negligee for the seventh reel near the end when I would admit to my best friend on the telephone that what I really wanted was to become a little housewife.
- Taste. You cannot buy such a rare and wonderful thing. You can't send away for it in a catalogue. And I'm afraid it's becoming obsolete.
- Taking joy in life is a woman's best cosmetic.
- Being given good material is like being assigned to bake a cake and having the batter made for you.
- I just get out there and belt a song around. No one would dare give me anything with a range of more than seven notes - and four would be better.
- [on her role in Picnic (1955)] [William Inge] has sisters who were schoolteachers. That helped him in writing Rosemary so perceptively.
- It's fine to have talent, but talent is the last of it. In an acting career, as in an acting performance, you've got to have vitality. The secret of successful acting is identical with a woman's beauty secret: joy in living.
- People can teach you a lot if you'll let them. I know.
- Moments. A couple of moments that people remember, that they can take with them, is what makes a good movie.
