To the man who prays habitually (not only when he feels like it-that is one of the snares of religion-but also when he does not feel like it) Christ is sure to make Himself real.

Well, I think one of the main things that you have to think about when acting in the movies is to try not to make the acting show.

I sort of got into Westerns... It was a sort of desperation move, really. I had several pictures that didn't go very well, and I just realised that I would have to try something else.

You must be oh-so smart, or oh-so pleasant. For years I was smart. I recommend pleasant...and you may quote me.

Mr. Hitchcock did not say actors are cattle. He said they should be treated like cattle.

I lasted one night. They said my playing spoiled people's appetites.

The truth is that it's just really hard for me to get to sleep without a dog in my bedroom. I once had a dog named Beau. He used to sleep in the corner of the bedroom. Some nights, though, he would sneak onto the bed and lie right between Gloria and me. I know that I should have pushed him off the bed, but I didn't. He was up there because he wanted me to pat his head, so that's what I would do.
