People all say that I've had a bad break. But today... today I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the Earth.

No mistake, I shall regret the absence of your keen mind; unfortunately, it is inseparable from an extremely disturbing body.

The only achievement I am really proud of is the friends I have made in this community.

One man who saw through his own eyes and thought with his own brain. Such men may be rare, they may be unknown, but they move the world.

I'm just glad it'll be Clark Gable who's falling on his face and not Gary Cooper.

It’s literally true, as Shakespeare said--all the world’s a stage. It wasn’t that way when I first got into the movies in 1924, but it is now. That’s why I find Hollywood newer and more exciting every day. Whatever you hear it’s still a place where a kid from Montana can jump on a horse, ride that-a-way, and keep right on going.

There ain't never a horse that never been rode; there ain't never a rider that can't be thrown.
