Ah, nuts. I'm an actor. I just do what comes naturally.

The only good reason to have money is this: so that you can tell any SOB in the world to go to hell.

This guy (Marlon Brando) - he'll be doing Hamlet when the rest of us are selling potatoes.

I don't approve of the John Waynes and the Gary Coopers saying "Shucks, I ain't no actor - I'm just a bridge builder or a gas station attendant." If they aren't actors, what the hell are they getting paid for? I have respect for my profession. I worked hard at it.

There never seems to be any trouble brewing around a bar until a woman puts that high heel over the brass rail. Don't ask me why, but somehow women at bars seem to create trouble among men.

I don't hurt the industry. The industry hurts itself, by making so many lousy movies - as if General Motors deliberately put out a bad car.

An actor needs something to stabilize his personality, something to nail down what he really is, not what he is currently pretending to be.
