When I was working on pictures with my father, there were a couple leading ladies to whom I wish I'd expressed how I felt rather than being too cool or too shy.
Well, I went through some emotionally abusive relationships and allowed myself to not be properly respected as a lady, as a human being even, though I tried everything I knew to be a lady.
I couldn't do any of my other characters, you know? But I could have done the lady. Church Lady's Malibu Beach party is an idea I have for a movie, too. Yes.
I toured with Lady Gaga, and her choreographer is incredibly talented and develops some crazy routines. Lady Gaga is very involved in the dancing, too, and she always wants to have creative input. I had an incredible time with her!
Iris Henderson: Did you notice the nun in there with the patient? Gilbert: No, not really... Iris Henderson: Nuns don't wear high heels.
Gilbert: What was she wearing? Scotch tweeds wasn't it? Iris Henderson: Oatmeal tweeds. Gilbert: I knew it had something to do with porridge.
Gilbert: [wearing a deerstalker and brandishing a calabash pipe] Let's marshal the facts over a pipeful of Baker Street shag.
I'll do shoes for the lady who lunches, but it would be, like, a really nasty lunch, talking about men. But where I draw the line, what I absolutely won't do, is the lady who plays bridge in the afternoon!
[as the plane prepares to take off] Hanging Lady: Nervous? Ted Striker: Yes. Hanging Lady: First time? Ted Striker: No, I've been nervous lots of times.
Wisdom comes through suffering or old age.
That's the privilege of old age: You don't have to remember.
Most women are indulgent of themselves. This is a mistake. It should be only the reward of old age.
Bashfulness is an ornament to youth, but a reproach to old age.
In youth we run into difficulties. In old age difficulties run into us.
The trick is growing up without growing old.
Old age and treachery will always beat youth and exuberance.
Old age comes on suddenly, and not gradually as is thought.
There's no such thing as old age, there is only sorrow.
Try to keep your soul young and quivering right up to old age.
The passions grafted on wounded pride are the most inveterate; they are green and vigorous in old age.
Error is acceptable as long as we are young; but one must not drag it along into old age.
