The only reason I'm in Hollywood is that I don't have the moral courage to refuse the money.

It's the hardest thing in the world to accept a 'little' success and leave it that way.

The close-up says everything.

The power and influence of a movie star is curious: I didn't ask for it or take it; people gave it to me. Simply because you're a movie star, people empower you with special rights and privileges.

The principal benefit acting has afforded me is the money to pay for my psychoanalysis.

Acting is the least mysterious of all crafts. Whenever we want something from somebody or when we want to hide something or pretend, we're acting. Most people do it all day long.

Only the one who walks his own way can't be overtaken.
