Judy Holliday quotes
" Acting is a very limited form of expression and those who take it seriously are very limited people. I take it seriously. "

Judy Holliday
" Columbia Pictures have to spend a lot of cash to make me look like a glamor puss. That's why I'm going to wait before I go into television. I look like a dim-witted high school girl. Besides, I have bad ankles and a prizefighter's jaw. "

Judy Holliday
" Everything is done for her. She doesn't have to strain a muscle, even in her head. "

Judy Holliday
" He didn't maintain my illusion of myself, he gave me an illusion of myself. Before I met him, I never thought of myself as an actress. Boy, he sidetracked me in a great way! "

Judy Holliday
" He's a tough cookie with a Napoleonic complex. Probably the most hated man in Hollywood - and believe me, that's a hard title to win in the movie colony. When an actor gets a job doing a picture for him, friends don't offer the actor their compliments... they offer their solace. "

Judy Holliday
" I am not a member of any organization listed by the Attorney General as subversive. In any instance where I lent my name in the past, it was certainly without knowledge that such an organization was subversive. I have always been essentially and foremost an American. "

Judy Holliday
" I am not an 'instant' actor... to really do anything, I've got to try it five or six or a dozen times. "

Judy Holliday
" I began my career as a song-n-dance girl at the age of four, when my mother dragged me to a ballet school and threw me in. "

Judy Holliday
" I can't accept this idea you sometimes across in Hollywood that a pretty picture is more important than the content. "

Judy Holliday
" I could talk about him all day. He's one of the most wonderful things that ever happened to me. "

Judy Holliday
" I don't think the public would accept me (in a dramatic part). As soon as they see me, they start to laugh. They see me as a clown. I doubt they could accept me in a serious role. "

Judy Holliday
" I get very nervous whenever I think about it. I've never done a serious play, and I have such awe of the woman - she's really my only idol. It's going to be a big stretch - certain people come out on stage and your face muscles automatically tense and you get ready to smile. "

Judy Holliday
" I guess I owe everything to Billie (her character in Born Yesterday). But, some mornings I wake up cursing her. "

Judy Holliday
" I hated the whole idea of being an actress. I used to throw up before every performance and cry afterward. "

Judy Holliday
" I kept thinking that in 30 years I'd be taking my grandchildren to the Museum of Modern Art, and would see Rita Hayworth or Lucille Ball in my role. It would be pretty hard to take. "
