Astaire Quotes

From Fred Astaire I learned discipline and hard work Picture Quote #1

Remember, ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did, but backwards and in high heels Picture Quote #1

The thing is that my idols have always been the types of guys who could do anything: Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Sinatra, Dean Martin; and when you look up to people like that, you don’t accept that you need to be compartmentalised Picture Quote #1

It’s nice that all the composers have said that nobody interprets a lyric like Fred Astaire. But when it comes to selling records I was never worth anything particularly except as a collector’s item Picture Quote #1

I felt Michael Jackson was inspired a little bit more from the elegance of a Fred Astaire. Michael loved Sammy Davis, Jr. and James Brown and Judy Garland and Fred Astaire. But he wasn’t any of those people. To be inspired is one thing, but he made it all his own Picture Quote #1

Of course the Disney movies, you know all the soundtracks, and anything Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire were doing - Singing in the Rain was one of my favorite musicals I used to watch a lot because my mom came from a theatre background Picture Quote #1

I grew up with the movies of Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire and Judy Garland - these are the kinds of shows and the kinds of numbers in shows that I dreamed of being in and doing when I was a kid Picture Quote #1

What do dancers think of Fred Astaire? It’s no secret. We hate him. He gives us a complex because he’s too perfect. His perfection is an absurdity. It’s too hard to face Picture Quote #1

You see, as far as the man’s personality goes, there’s no one who can touch Fred Astaire. He’s unique Picture Quote #1

Mick Jagger moves like a parody between a majorette girl and Fred Astaire Picture Quote #1

Fred Astaire is the Carioca, the Continental, the very Piccolino of romance Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid, I loved Nicholas brothers films. It was like skateboarding. Even Gene Kelly: I always preferred him to Fred Astaire, just because he was more athletic, like skateboarding Picture Quote #1

I studied dancing for 13 years. And loved to dance. Always wanted to dance with Fred Astaire Picture Quote #1

When I was young, I ran to see Astaire and Rogers, Huston, Lubitsch - they were formative for me. I also read ‘Flash Gordon’ when I was 6, but if I were still reading it when I was 16, I’d have been an imbecile Picture Quote #1

There’s an old Fred Astaire movie where the stage becomes bigger and deeper and more complex. Moments like that really did impact on me and influence me Picture Quote #1

I dug up my dad’s old Fred Astaire tapes, and now I find him super-inspiring. He’s, like, one of the best dancers Picture Quote #1

I make up cassettes all the time - to take on the road with me - a song from this album, a song from that album. That’s the way I listen to music; it’s like one of those K Tel things: it’s from all over. I listen to Fred Astaire, I listen to African folk music, I listen to Talking Heads Picture Quote #1

What do dancers think of Fred Astaire? It’s no secret. We hate him. He gives us a complex because he’s too perfect. His perfection is an absurdity. It’s too hard to face Picture Quote #1

Astaire was not a sexual animal, but he made his partners look so extraordinarily related to him Picture Quote #1

I loved old black and white movies, especially the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers musicals. I loved everything about them - the songs, the music, the romance and the spectacle. They were real class and I knew that I wanted to be in that world Picture Quote #1

When I am cast in a movie where I feel that the woman's part is more interesting, I usually start thinking about Spencer Tracy and Fred Astaire. They seem to be the most clear actors when working with women Picture Quote #1
