Being a good host offsets the deprivation and loneliness of my youth
I don't care how small the parts are, as long as they're good
I've always had a great respect for the picture business. It's been good to me
I wish I were the type who could walk into a place and have everybody love me. But I'm not, and there's no use wishing
I'd rather be David Ladd's father than Alan Ladd any day
I just want to make pictures that are entertaining. I'll leave the scenery chewing to someone else
