We should never forget that Hollywood was built by Europeans, and the old Jewish boys from Eastern Europe.

A conversation goes sometimes into personal things and that's nicer. You look to each other and you have a different picture, you get into a relationship.

Except here it's more power, more energy, younger and also in Europe it's still not only entertainment. Theater or films are looked at as a moral institution. That's why maybe they're so poetic. Here it's clear entertainment.

The interesting thing is that I found scenes which I put together which could appeal to almost every woman, or apply to almost every woman after the war. Falling in love, dancing, marrying.

I never played the right roles, or very rarely got the right roles offered, except on stage.

I did have fun, for example, in The Black Hole which was very popular among youngsters.

First love is first love, first marriage is first marriage, disappointment is disappointment.

And in reality, I don't think it's a real documentary. It's more a story of her life. It's a story of survival. It's a story of the time in which she lived. The story of success and failure.

I'm always happy when I'm left alone, but if somebody comes and is nice, then we talk.

I played piano, I learned a lot about music.

I think there's a poet who wrote once a tragedy by Shakespeare, a symphony by Beethoven and a thunderstorm are based on the same elements. I think that's a beautiful line.

We should never forget that Hollywood was built by Europeans, and the old Jewish boys from Eastern Europe.

I just think the word interview, although it is the view between two people exchanged, became a sort of cliche. You ask questions and the other one answers.

Well, I did Marlene 15 years ago and that's in the style. It's somehow similar and not similar because Marlene was much more aggressive, funny and sad.

And it's interesting, but I'm always interested in the story behind the story.

Music in this film is a very important part.

As an actor, I was a fantastic rebel. Then I became a directorial rebel and understood rebels from both sides. So now I am a friend who gives advice - not one who knows more, necessarily, but who shares ideas.

Directing is like meeting a woman. You don't know her, but something strikes you, and then you just have to go into it.

Everything you do has certain significance, a certain weight. I think there is a film in everyone.

I am America's number-one fan. I like your food. Especially corn flakes.

I'll never forget Spencer Tracy. He only worked from nine to one - then from three to five again.

My mother was an actress and a director, as well. And my father was a playwright and poet.

To be honest, I don't think I'm an actor. I'm a creator - or try to be.

When I was a young actor, in my first apartment, the first thing I bought was a Steinway piano. There was no bed at first. I slept on the floor.

When you have the cast, the sets, the lights, an opera takes on its own life. I'm not one of those directors who marches in with a set of plans.

There were a lot of adventure books for boys, historical novels by Kenneth Roberts, and whatever mystery novels the alarmed librarian imagined might not corrupt an eager but innocent youth.

I didn't have a boyfriend until I was 17. There were boys at school that I would find out later had a crush on me but I was too shy to talk to them.

When it comes to boys and her weight, I think Ellenor is much more conservative than I am, and she has not had the dialogue I have had about my weight.

Americans are big boys. You can talk them into almost anything. Just sit with them for half an hour over a bottle of whiskey and be a nice guy.

I keep fit by running after my three boys all day.

Looking back, I think we were all quite mature, surprisingly responsible. In earlier wars, boys of our age had just gone off to raise hell or enlist or both, but we stayed dutifully at our desks doing tomorrow's homework.

Of course The Beach Boys will be camp.

The moral turpitude of the boys of today appears to center in their failure to concentrate on any particular objective long enough to obtain their maximum results.

When I first started editing GQ, it gave the impression of being, and in fact was, a gay magazine. There were female models in it and there were women on the cover, but the boys were always much, much more beautiful than the girls.

When our boys come home from France, we will have the hags flung out.

The army teaches boys to think like men.

I was a very observant child. The boys in my books are based on boys in my neighborhood growing up.

As flies to wanton boys, are we to the gods; they kill us for their sport.

I beg you to look at the promising boys and beautiful girls in your homes and in your communities, and then you will not put these temptations in their way.

Alexander at the head of the world never tasted the true pleasure that boys of his own age have enjoyed at the head of a school.

Now, being a girl, I was ashamed of my body and my lack of strength. So I tried to be a man. I shot, rode, jumped, and took part in all the fights of the boys.

Dancing on 'Dancing With The Stars' really broadened my fan base. I jumped off the stage backwards one week, and so many women come up to me now and say, 'You're so brave. I can't believe you put yourself out there like that'. If that inspires some girl out there, then great, because boys aren't the only ones who get to have fun. We get to have fun too.

There is many a boy here today who looks on war as all glory, but, boys, it is all hell.

Composers should write tunes that chauffeurs and errand boys can whistle.

We got into all the trouble you could ever imagine. We figured that if the Jones boys and all the gangsters ran Chicago, we had our own territory now. All the stores, all the crime, we were in charge of everything, my stepbrother and my brother.

You know, The Beach Boys' image is kinda like a group Doris Day, you know what I mean?

Mutual funds give people the sense that they're investing with the big boys and that they're really not at a disadvantage entering the stock market.

I came from a big family - two brothers and two sisters. So, there were always a ton of boys around and a ton of girls around. So, I grew up comfortable with both sexes.

I was the last one to screen test for The Hardy Boys. I'd like to play that's not as clean-cut as Frank Hardy. I play him as straight as possible.
