I hate the Communists and have for many years and don't feel right about giving up my career to defend them. I will give up my film career if it is in the interests of defending something I believe in, but not this.

The Communists automatically violated the daily practices of democracy to which I was accustomed.

I was not what you'd call a first-class actor, but I did all right.

I question the value of stars. I think they're overrated. They get too much money, too much praise.

Being stuck in a rut can kill your creativity, stress you out, and zap your productivity. Doing the same thing over and over again causes your days to blend together.

The imagination is part of the arsenal that actors draw from.

I just had to find something else to fulfill me. Always being a singer and writing, it was a blessing. My brother started making music that was the kind of music I always saw myself singing.

It takes no imagination to live within your means.
