There's no second chance on stage, and I was trained to make the most of my first chance.
From Kate Smith
This nation loves singing and loves acting.
Since I have been singing for so many years, I don't always need to approach a song quite so laboriously and meticulously.
Public and employer opinion often defeat society's best interests with a prejudice against middle-aged women.
My singing is part of me, like my stoutness, or my light hair, or my poor eyesight.
Most of the people who act and sing do so for their own pleasure and that of their friends and family.
Middle-aged women have greater stability, they are more loyal, and their capacity for steady work is greater than that of younger women.
Many people submit to excessive appetites without realizing that they do not need to eat so much food.
It's up to the audience. It always has been.
It is important that the audience should understand every syllable of every word, for only then can they grasp the meaning of the song.
