Elvis Presley Quotes:
  • "I wouldn't call girls a hobby. It's a pastime."
  • "I don't like to be called Elvis the Pelvis. It's one of the most childish expressions I've ever heard coming from an adult. But if they wanna call me that, there's nothin' I can do about it, so I just have to accept it."
  • "When I started singing, I weighed 153 pounds. I weigh 184 now. I haven't gotten any taller, but I'm putting on a little more weight."
  • "I like pork chops and country ham, creamed potatoes, stuff like that. Redeye gravy. It comes from ham, bacon, stuff like that. It's the grease that you fry it in. I eat a lot of Jell-O. Fruit Jell-O."
  • "In public, I like real conservative clothes, something that's not too flashy. But onstage, I like 'em as flashy as you can get 'em."
  • "The only exercise I get is on the stage. If I didn't get that, I'd get a little round around the tummy, as much as I eat."
  • "The only kind of trouble I've ever been in is when I was stealing eggs when I was little. I think I know right from wrong."
  • "The first car I bought was the most beautiful car I've ever seen. It was secondhand, but I parked it outside of my hotel the day I got it. I sat up all night, just lookin' at it."
  • "The thing I like about success is to know that you've got so many friends. A lot of real close friends that I've made since I've been in the business."
  • "I've had a pretty good lesson in human nature. It's more important to try to surround yourself with people who can give you a little happiness, because you can only pass through this life once, Jack. You don't come back for an encore."
