I hate the Communists and have for many years and don't feel right about giving up my career to defend them. I will give up my film career if it is in the interests of defending something I believe in, but not this.

Very often the Group actor is a critic when he's acting and an actor when he's criticizing.

I was the hero of the young insurgent working class art movement.

I was not a collective person or a bohemian; I was an elitist.

I question the value of stars. I think they're overrated. They get too much money, too much praise.

I was not what you'd call a first-class actor, but I did all right.

For years after I resigned, I was still faithful to their way of thinking. But not in the American Communists.
