I bring to a role everything I am, was and hope to be.

Only interested in himself and profiting from the war as an unscrupulous entrepreneur, and not in being a patriot: "I believe in Rhett Butler. He's the only cause I know. The rest doesn't mean much to me."

This power that I'm supposed to have over women was never noticed when I was a stage actor on Broadway. I don't know when I got it. And by God, I can't explain it.

Every picture I make, every experience of my private life, every lesson I learn are the keys to my future. And I have faith in it.

If any child of mine becomes an actor I will turn in my grave.

When the public doesn't want me any longer, I'll quit.

I don't discuss women at all with anyone. There are good qualities in all women. Some may be lacking in some of these qualities and should have them. I'm liable to say so and hurt their feelings, and it wouldn't be meant that way at all.
