A man's game
I'd studied dance in Chicago every summer end taught it all winter, and I was well-rounded. I wasn't worried about getting a job on Broadway. In fact, I got one the first week.- Gene Kelly
In the end, everything is a gag.
“I remain just one thing, and one thing only, and that is a clown. It places me on a far higher plane than any politician.”

It's marvellous, marvellous!
I have never taken a picture for any other reason than that at that moment it made me happy to do so.

Fashions fade, style is eternal.
I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most relaxed and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - all I hope for in my clothes.

I Ka Nyi' Tan' - Now don't move
"Girls on Bike" by Seydou Keita, Photographer
Bicycles, mopeds, cars, the props went from small to medium to large. Vespas were average but a car was luxury. And it didn't just stop at one he had lots, so people thought he was well-off and for the time he was.

I do not seek. I find.
What is a face, really? Its own photo? Its make-up? Or is it a face as painted by such or such painter? That which is in front? Inside? Behind? And the rest? Doesn't everyone look at himself in his own particular way? Deformations simply do not exist.
Dogs never bite. Just humans.
Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.

You were such a babe!

I'm afraid of you? Are you cracked?
Motorcycles, rebellion, and the open road wouldn’t be the same without Marlon Brando’s “The Wild One” (1953).
"It begins here for me on this road. How the whole mess happened I don't
know, but I know it couldn't happen again in a million years. Maybe I
could of stopped it early, but once the trouble was on its way, I was
just goin' with it. Mostly I remember the girl. I can't explain it - a
sad chick like that, but somethin' changed in me. She got to me, but
that's later anyway. This is where it begins for me right on this road."
Tutus for Tennis
Designer Teddy Tinling had reason to know what makes a good tennis dress. For 22 years, until the flare-up over Miss Moran's pants caused him to resign, he was Master of Ceremonies of the center court at Wimbledon.
He dressed almost every important woman player—and about half of
the men, including Seixas and Trabert. Mass-produced copies of his
custom-designed Wimbledon costumes were also sold to more than 10,000 less well-known but equally ardent players in England and in America.
Sweet Love - Anita!
I don't let people use me. That's why I like a small
number of people in my life. The more people in my life, the more
complex it becomes, so I just try to keep it at a minimum.
- Anita Baker

United States Rubber
1957 vintage ad.U.S. Rubber has created a revolutionary new swim cap material - WATER VELVET - that actually looks like velvet... feels like velvet... yet comes out of the sea without a blemish, unbelievably soft and glowing. You'll feel beautiful as never before, and your hair will stay wonderfully dry in a U.S. Swim Cap of new Water Velvet.
So. Let's talk dance.
The creative process is not controlled by a switch you can simply turn on or off; it's with you all the time. -Alvin Ailey
