Famous Ella Fitzgerald Quotes

“I used to be very self-conscious. I used to wish I was pretty. My cousin Georgia always taught me that if you smile, people will like you. Sometimes people will say something you don't like, and you get angry a bit, but you just smile. You let it go by, even if you really would like to choke 'em. By smiling, I think I've made more friends than if I was the other way.”

“Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong.”
