I was forced to live far beyond my years when just a child, now I have reversed the order and I intend to remain young indefinitely.

Adding sound to movies would be like putting lipstick on the Venus de Milo.

After Theda Bara appeared in A Fool There Was, a vampire wave surged over the country. Women appeared in vampire gowns, pendant earrings, and even young girls were attempting to change from frank, open-eyed ingenues to the almond-eyed, carmine-lipped woman of subtlety and mystery.

It's not the falling down that counts. It's the getting up.

...I'm thirteen years old, and I think I'm at the crossroads of my life. I've got to make good between now and the time I'm twenty, and I have only seven years to do it in. Besides, I'm the father of my family and I've got to earn all the money I can.

You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing that we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down.

Today is a new day.You will get out of it just what you put into it.
