Legends are all to do with the past and nothing to do with the present.

Well, the people I've known I must say are extraordinary. When I think about some of them, I can't believe that I knew them all. And I think the reason I knew most of them at the beginning was because they were of Bogie's generation, 25 years my senior, not mine. But they were the most talented people of all.

Actors today go into TV, which I don't consider has a lot to do with acting. They only think of stardom. If you photograph well, that's enough. I have a terrible time distinguishing one from another. Girls wear their hair the same, and are much too anorexic-looking.

Looking at yourself in a mirror isn't exactly a study of life.

If there was one thing I had never been, it was mysterious, and if there was one thing I had never done, it was not talk.

Standing still is the fastest way of moving backwards in a rapidly changing world.

I am not a has-been. I am a will-be.
