Gene Kelly Famous Lines

Here are a few of our favorite lines from Gene Kelly.

Jerry Mulligan(An American in Paris):
"Back home everyone said I didn't have any talent. They might be saying the same thing over here but it sounds better in French."

E.K. Hornbeck (Inherit the Wind):
"I may be rancid butter, but I'm on your side of the bread."

Harry Palmer(For Me and My Gal):
"Why didn't you tell me I was in love with you?"

Don Lockwood(Singin' in the Rain):
"Try to get this straight. There is nothing between us. There has never been anything between us. Just air."

E.K. Hornbeck (Inherit the Wind):
"He that sups with the devil must have a long spoon."

Don Lockwood(Singin' in the Rain):
"Oh, you're going to New York and then some day we'll all hear of you, won't we? Kathy Selden as Juliet, as Lady Macbeth, as King Lear. You'll have to wear a beard for that one of course."

Jerry Mulligan(An American in Paris):
"That's... quite a dress you almost have on."

E.K. Hornbeck (Inherit the Wind):
"Disillusionment is what little heroes are made of."
