Betty Grable

“There are two reasons why I am successful in show business and I am standing on both of them.”

“I'm a song-and-dance girl. I can act enough to get by. But that's the limit of my talents.”

“I'm strictly an enlisted man's girl.”

“The practice of putting women on pedestals began to die out when it was discovered that they could give orders better from there.”

“Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul. I know, because I turned down the first offer often enough and held out for the fifty cents.”

“I have the body of a woman and the emotions of a child.”

“What I've always said is that I'm a singer who dances a little.”
