More From Roger Ebert

After all, ginger rogers did everything that fred astaire did. she just did it backwards and in high heels.

While i was making my solo films, rko was busily trying to get me and fred astaire back together. the studio wanted to capitalize on the success of 'flying down to rio' and realized that the pairing of rogers and astaire had moneymaking potential.

When ginger rogers danced with astaire, it was the only time in the movies when you looked at the man, not the woman.

What can one say about michael jackson? he is one of the world's most acclaimed entertainers, an innovative and exciting songwriter whose dancing seems to defy gravity and has been heralded by the likes of fred astaire and gene kelly. his public is perhaps unaware of the extent of his dedication to his craft. restless, seldom satisfied, he is a perfectionist who is constantly challenging himself. to many people michael jackson seems an elusive personality, but to those who work with him, he is not. this talented artist is a sensitive man, warm, funny, and full of insight.

Fred, you next," the plump woman said. "i'm not fred, i'm george," said the boy. "honestly, woman, you call yourself our mother? can't you tell i'm george?" "sorry, george, dear." "only joking, i am fred," said the boy and off he went.

It is much, much worse to receive bad news through the written word than by somebody simply telling you, and i’m sure you understand why. when somebody simply tells you bad news, you hear it once, and that’s the end of it. but when bad news is written down, whether in a letter or a newspaper or on your arm in felt tip pen, each time you read it, you feel as if you are receiving the bad news again and again.

Similar Quotes

Human life runs its course in the metamorphosis between receiving and giving.

Should not the giver be thankful that the receiver received? is not giving a need? is not receiving, mercy?

My greatest accomplishment is receiving my role on "the guiding light".

Once you have surrendered yourself, you make yourself receptive. in receiving from god, you are perfected and completed.
