Elvis quotes
Page 6 of 8For those of you who are wondering who this fella here is, I am the legendary Colonel Tom Parker. I am the man who gave the world Elvis Presley. Without me, there would be no Elvis Presley. And yet, there are some who'd make me out to be the villain of this here story.
Go get 'em, Elvis.
He had no idea what he had done.
I always said, when it came to music, my boy knows best. But the special was my idea. It was a tremendous hit. We was back on top. But some people were putting ideas in his head that he didn't need me no more.
I don't wanna sing another song that I don't believe in! I don't wanna make another movie that I don't care about! This TV thing has me excited for the first time in years. I'm having fun with my music and I don't wanna lose that feeling.
I guarantee you that more people will see this one night of The Milton Berle Show than we'll ever see that Burt Lancaster movie. Now, c'mon, Uncle Miltie's waiting.
I just got to be making the most of this thing while I can. This could be over in a flash.
I need to get back to who I really am.
I would do anything to make sure my momma and daddy never had to live in poverty ever again.
I‘m so tired of playing Elvis Presley. People rely on me.
I'm going to show you what the real Elvis is like tonight!
I'm not gonna shine your brass, son. I don't get your music. I'm more of a Lawrence Welk kind of fellow. Well, it's not liking it or not, I just don't get what all the fuss is about. But there is a fuss, and I can surely understand that. And I can sell it. I can sell anything. I can sell a wino the sweat off a grape. And I know I can sell the hell out of you.
I'm ready. Ready to fly.
If I can't move, I can't sing.
