Elaine Paige's Quotes

I'm not retiring. We don't mention that word. That word does not come into it.
I do regret the fact that I never married and had a family of my own. But I'm of the belief that you can't have it all.
[on being called the first lady of British musical theater] I think it's rather grand. It makes me feel very old. It's silly, really. They're probably just saying it because I've been around so long. But I accept it gracefully. I just keep slapping on the makeup, wiping away the years and going on stage. [The Arizona Republic, Feb. 24, 2013]
