mothers-day mom laughing
She raised us with humor, and she raised us to understand that not everything was going to be great-but how to laugh through it.
mother hard-times talking
If we had a hard time, my mother would sit me down and we would talk about it, and she kept talking and kept processing until we started to laugh about it.
mother father artist
My mother was an artist and highly strung, whereas my father was much calmer.
daughter mother children
It was no great tragedy being Judy Garland's daughter. I had tremendously interesting childhood years - except they had little to do with being a child.
dream mother father
I've said it before, but it's absolutely true: My mother gave me my drive, but my father gave me my dreams. Thanks to him, I could see a future.
mother dream father
My mother gave me my drive but my father gave me my dreams.
mother feelings lioness
It was like Mama suddenly realized I was good, that she didn't have to apologize for me. It was the strangest feeling. One minute I was on stage with my mother, the next moment I was on stage with Judy Garland. One minute she smiled at me, and the next minute she was like the lioness that owned the stage and suddenly found somebody invading her territory. The killer instinct of a performer had come out in her.
felt maybe outcasts school standard
I think probably Barbra and maybe even Cher and myself in school felt like outcasts because we didn't have standard looks.
animal bred caught found moment performance pieces tiny together total
I thought, 'My God, every tiny little thing, every moment that I did, Fosse caught.' He caught a total performance that could have been nothing, but he found these pieces and put them together to make it the one thing that I don't really have, which is a film of what I really do. I'm an animal of the stage. I was bred to be that.
build hear legend people
She said the legend is going to build, they're going to build it, you've got nothing to do with it. So don't go out and say 'But I'm not like that!' because people don't want to hear it,
performance
It was done in one night. It was one performance only. That was it. That was our shot.
enjoy held party peace people sending
We held off sending our invitations out because we want to have our party when the world is at peace and people can come and enjoy themselves.
best pretend raise
The thing is, is to raise your hand. It's not to hide, and it's not to try and pretend or do anything like that. You raise your hand, that's the best thing about it.
mom nobody sang song
Nobody sang better than my mom. That's why I've never even thought of singing for singing sake. I've always thought of a song as an acting piece, as a way to say something.
