Billie Holiday

You've got to have something to eat and a little love in your life before you can hold still for any damn body's sermon on how to behave. ”

There's no damn business like show business - you have to smile to keep from throwing up. ”

I never hurt nobody but myself and that's nobody's business but my own. ”

I hate straight singing. I have to change a tune to my own way of doing it. That's all I know. ”
