Why should I complain about making $700 a week playing a maid? If I didn't, I'd be making $7 a week being one.

That's a powerful lucky rabbit's foot. I got the part in Gone With the Wind because of it. I got my Warner contract, thanks to it.

We all respect sincerity in our friends and acquaintances, but Hollywood is willing to pay for it.

What is the thing that Hollywood demands most? Sincerity. No place in the world will pay such a high price for this admirable trait

I've played everything but a harp.

Every actor and actress is possessed of the absorbing passion to create something distinctive and unique.

I'd rather make $700 a week playing a maid than earn $7 a day being a maid.
