I've always had a great respect for the picture business. It's been good to me

It seems only reasonable that the people have a right to know virtually everything about the personality they are buying each time they put their money through the box office

I learned more about acting from George Stevens in a few months than I had in my entire life up until then

Maybe I can't act, but I know the gimmicks. I studied acting all my life and know what's good for me.

I never fail to feel let down when I see myself on the screen.

Nobody's strong enough to stand up under a flood of weak material.

I don't care how small the parts are, as long as they're good
