I love the art of acting, and I love film, because you always have anther chance if you want it. You know, if we - if this isn't going well, you can't say - well, you could say - let's stop. Let's start over again, Gene, because you were too nervous.

Fundamentally I feel that there is as much difference between the stage and the films as between a piano and a violin. Normally you can't become a virtuoso in both.

The arts are not just instantaneous pleasure - if you don't like it, the artist is wrong. I belong to the generation which says if you don't like it, you don't understand and you ought to find out.

Our achievements speak for themselves. What we have to keep track of are our failures, discouragements and doubts. We tend to forget the past difficulties, the many false starts, and the painful groping.

For an actress to be a success, she must have the face of a Venus, the brains of a Minerva, the grace of Terpsichore, the memory of a MaCaulay, the figure of Juno, and the hide of a rhinoceros.

You must learn day by day, year by year to broaden your horizon. The more things you love, the more you are interested in, the more you enjoy, the more you are indignant about, the more you have left when anything happens.

When life knocks you to your knees, and it will, why, get up! If it knocks you to your knees again, as it will, well, isn't that the best position from which to pray?

Wilder Wein
Wilder Wein-vor deinem Schloss
Wilder Wein-ich bin bereit
man meldet Ankunft-nur fuer den Koenig
Gott steh mir bei-und oeffne deine Tore
Wilder Wein-und ganz langsam
Wilder Wein-so warm und feucht
Wilder Wein-vor deinem Schloss
Wilder Wein-es steht geschrieben
tief im Wasser-kreuzt man nicht
doch mein Lust-verlacht die Fluegel
Wilder Wein-wie eineTaube
Wilder Wein-so nass und heiss
Wilder Wein-vor diesem Dunkel
Wilder Wein-von Licht geheilt
es bleibt verborgen-sonst koennten wir uns wehren
ich warte auf dich-am Ende der Nacht
Wilder Wein-nur eine Traube
Wilder Wein-und bitter wie Schnee
ich warte auf dich-am Ende der Nacht
ich warte auf dich-am Ende der Nacht
ich warte auf dich-am Ende der Nacht
ich warte auf dich-am Ende der Nacht

So my idea of neurotic is spending too much time trying to correct a wrong. When I feel that I'm doing that, then I snap out of it.

Actors fall into this trap if they missed being loved for who they really were and not for what they could do - sing, dance, joke about - then they take that as love.

Die? I should say not, dear fellow. No Barrymore would allow such a conventional thing to happen to him.

A lot of comic actors derive their main force from childish behavior. Most great comics are doing such silly things; you'd say, 'That's what a child would do.'
