Gene Kelly citáty a výroky

„Nebyl to souboj tanečníků - naše různé styly byly vytvořeny záměrně. Můj styl je silný, široce otevřený, Fredův je intimní, v pohodě, v klidu. On může potěšit publikum jen tím, že přejde přes taneční parket.“

Gene Kelly

Originál: (en) It wasn't a battle of dancers, but our different styles were purposely made apparent. My style is strong, wide open; Fred's is intimate, cool, easy. He can give an audience pleasure just by walking across a dance floor.

„Tančit jsem se začal učit proto, že to byl dobrý způsob, jak se seznámit s děvčaty.“

Gene Kelly: Citáty anglicky

“In the 1930s, when I started, Martha Graham was the only dancer doing anything modern, but she did it all to classical music. I couldn't see myself doing Swan Lake every night, and I wanted to develop a truly American style. The only dancer in the movies at that time with any success was Fred Astaire, but he did very small, elegant steps in a top hat, white tie, and tails.”

Quoted in "Gene Kelly's Musical Memories"

“It's all true. It's true I didn't want to be a dancer. What I really wanted to be was a shortstop for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Then at 14 I discovered girls, and began to study dancing diligently. At that time dancing was the only way you could put your arm around the girl. Dancing was courtship. Only later did I discover you dance joy. You dance love. You dance dreams. Of course, the Pittsburgh Pirates lost a hell of a shortstop.”

“I really don't know why I clicked. I didn't want to be a dancer, I just did it to work my way through college. But I was always an athlete and gymnast, so it came naturally.”
