Text Quotes
Once I got to be about twenty-five, I got interested in the music of the time. I started smokin’ dope, I started drinking, I started slowing down and trying to find myself. I didn’t want to work in nightclubs  (Gregory Hines Quotes) The best entertainment speaks to the human condition in an honest way  (Gregory Hines Quotes) They were very generous with me. Everybody was willing to talk about their particular accident, what they had to deal with and how they got back in touch with their competitors’ spirit  (Gregory Hines Quotes) As parents, we’re human beings, too, but sometimes we’re not as understanding as we’d like to be.  (Gregory Hines Quotes) One of the things about working on stage - actually, about working in show business, that is - is that it’s such a collaborative effort. I suppose that everything in life is - every endeavor where people are able to be successful.  (Gregory Hines Quotes) When my brother and me got into performing in the late 40s and early 50s, it was a sensational opportunity to learn from our elders. Every show we played had a dancer, a comic, a juggler, a singer, an acrobat. I came to appreciate virtuosity in all forms of the business.  (Gregory Hines Quotes) I’ve had times when I’ve done what seems like a thousand interviews to promote a film that I’m in. I start to think that I’m the best thing that ever happened to the world, talkin’ about myself for cryin’ out loud. Then I come home, and my wife needs me to help with dinner and empty the garbage, and the kids need help with their homework.  (Gregory Hines Quotes) I wanted to make a movie, because the whole life of the movies appealed to me. You work hard for three or four months, then you don’t work at all for a couple of months.  (Gregory Hines Quotes) I never wanted to be a star, I just wanted to get work  (Gregory Hines Quotes) My character had been in the chair for seven years. He had gone through his anger, depression, drug and alcohol abuse. He had gone through everything, now he was up, he was happy, he was filled with his dream  (Gregory Hines Quotes) I don’t remember not dancing. When I realized I was alive and these were my parents, and I could walk and talk, I could dance  (Gregory Hines Quotes) I wanted to make a movie, because the whole life of the movies appealed to me. You work hard for three or four months, then you don’t work at all for a couple of months  (Gregory Hines Quotes) They told me that the hotels had maybe two rooms set up for people with disabilities, but if they got there too late, and didn’t get one of these rooms, they couldn’t take a shower. The room wasn’t hooked up for them, or maybe the sink was too high  (Gregory Hines Quotes) You know the first time I sat in the chair I felt anything but up, it was very emotional for me. I had a chair in my hotel room, a chair at rehearsal, and I was trying to spend as much time as I could in the chair  (Gregory Hines Quotes) It would be like the films I’ve seen where wardens would decide to be in a jail cell for a week, to get a sense of what it would be like to be a prisoner  (Gregory Hines Quotes)
