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

I've lost many of my best friends... I'm going to satisfy myself now, not the critics, not even my friends.

I was taken in by what might be called the Hard Times version of the Communists' advertising or recruiting technique.

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

Take it from a director: if you get an actor that Sandy Meisner has trained, you've been blessed.

I think there should be collaboration, but under my thumb.

I truly believe that all power corrupts. Such is probably the thinking behind every political film ever made in Hollywood.
