I feel that much of the world's sorrow comes from people who are this, yet allow themselves to be treated as that.

Despair is your friend in show business. I don't believe you can act if happiness is your lot. It's the ups that keep you living and the downs that mete out talent.

Aim above morality. If you apply that to life, then youre bound to live life fully.

To be somebody, you must last.

Vice, virtue - it's best not to be too moral. You'll cheat yourself out of too much life.

A lot of people enjoy being dead. But they are not dead, really. They're just backing away from life.

My body is on the earth, but my head is in the stars.
