Since that first showing of Foolish Wives I have seemed to walk through vast crowds of people, their white American faces turned towards me in stern reproof.

In Hollywood - in Hollywood, you're as good as your last picture.

I was reared in an atmosphere where a great deal of attention was paid to women's hairdressing.

I could not work with a girl who did not have a spiritual quality.

As soon as I had seen Fay Wray and spoken with her for a few minutes, I knew I had found the right girl.

Fay has spirituality too, but she also has that very real sex appeal that takes hold of the hearts of men.

And yet because of my attempt at sincerity I have been condemned, hooted at, reviled; filthy rumors have been circulated about me, not about my characterizations but about me personally, my private self.
