Doris Day Famous Quotes

2011-04-03T18:29:00.001-04:00

This is why we love you Doris! Brains, beauty, talent and a sense of humor!

"The really frightening thing about middle age is the knowledge that you'll grow out of it."

“Middle age is youth without levity, and age without decay.”

“If it's true that men are such beasts, this must account for the fact that most women are animal lovers.”

"Pillow Talk", 1959

2011-04-03T18:28:00.003-04:00

"Pillow Talk", written by Stanley Shapiro and Maurice Richlin, was a cleverly written script that was deemed racy in 1959. Day played Jan Morrow, a fashionable New York interior decorator, who is in conflict with the other half of her partyline, songwriter, Brad Allen (Rock Hudson), who annoyingly monopolises the phone singing love songs to a bevy of women. Frustrated, she seeks help from the phone company, who send out a female inspector who instantly becomes smitten with the handsome Mr Allen.

Jonathan Forbes (Tony Randall) is meanwhile pursuing Jan, who although she's fond of him, has no romantic interest in him. Randall plays a rich executive who is also producing a Broadway musical being written by his friend, Brad Allen. Today, this sounds much too contrived, considering New York is populated by over eight million people! But then, this is Hollywood!

The Doris Day Animal Foundation (DDAF) became independent from the Doris Day Animal League in 2007, when the DDAL merged with The Humane Society of the United States.
DDAF will continue its longstanding mission to “help animals and the people who love them,” with a focus on funding other non-profit causes that need help in their work caring for and protecting animals.

To Quote the Wonderful Brenda Lee

2010-12-11T16:25:00.001-05:00

Brenda Lee's Famous Quotes

A lot of people thought I'd died, because of your coverage, they know I'm still around.

I always felt that I was one of the women who helped lay the foundation for rock and roll. But I'd always been overlooked by the Hall of Fame.

I believe I became one of the first singers to be launched via television exposure. I guess I was a new kind of musical stylist for a new kind of media.

I gave up my childhood for a career.

I only wish Chet Atkins could be here for this joyous occasion.

I still don't look at myself as a star. I've always had a thankful heart.

I still sing because I love the sound of applause, because it's who I am, and because I still can.

I was nuts about Elvis, like every girl in America.
I wasn't aware of it at the time, but I was a big favorite with the Mafia.
I'm not used to introspection. I've never lingered on my feelings. The show must go on.
I've spent an awful lot of my time in the air. I've had everything happen to me in a plane that could happen. Except a crash.
John Lennon was very irreverent and very intelligent.

The amazing thing is that I'm sane. I'm not bitter. I'm not drugged out. I'm not broke. I'm still married to the same guy. My children don't hate me.

The Beatles were raw musically, but I think they really had something.

The music business can be very cold. And it doesn't honor its elders.

Whatever happened to the tomboy I used to be, the slightly rebellious rocker?

Only 4 other artists had received this award before Brenda over a 20 year history of NARAS. The other award winners were: Wesley Rose, Bill Williams, Roy Acuff, and Kitty Wells. This award is given to a person who had made a contribution to the recording industry that merits recognition surpassing all other traditional awards and honors. The evening was titled appropriately "A Tribute to a Legend." The ceremonies were attended by family, friends, fans, music industry executives, and performers in country music. Each came to say "Thanks Brenda for what you have done for the entire music world and for Nashville in particular." Mayor Richard Fulton declared it Brenda Lee Day in Nashville, Tennessee. Governor Lamar Alexander proclaimed it Brenda Lee Day in the State of Tennessee. Brenda moved the audience to tears with an emotional speech following the accolades of the evening. At the end of the speech the audience rose to give her a standing ovation. The last standing ovation occurred when the show was closed with Brenda singing an incredibly emotional 18 song medley with Owen Bradley at piano.

• October 3, 1987 was declared Brenda Lee Day in Lithonia, Georgia. A street, Brenda Lee Lane, was named in her honor. Festivities included a parade with Brenda as Grand Marshall, the presentation of the street sign, declaration of Brenda Lee Day in Lithonia, and a reunion with the TV Wranglers.
