They still had the Lord Chamberlain, so we had this idiotic censorship. We were allowed three Jesus Christs instead of 10. Why three were OK, I don't know.

I'm a bad liar; I don't know what to say backstage.

Marlon was so sensitive, you thought the poor guy just had a bad education.

Awards don't really mean much.

I have disassociated myself from that book.

I love playing Chekhov. That's the hardest; that's why I love it most.

We were not allowed to say, Screw, but we could say, Hump the hostess, because hump is in Shakespeare.

If you want a bourgeois existence, you shouldn't be an actor. You're in the wrong profession.

Once in awhile, there's stuff that makes me say, That's what theatre's about. It has to be a human event on the stage, and that doesn't happen very often.

Usually, someone who's in a show gets me a ticket. I feel cornered. I can't walk out if I don't like it.

Working with Brando was fun. It was like a tennis match. We played unbelievably well together.

Maybe the one I enjoyed playing most was A Month in the Country.

They still had the Lord Chamberlain, so we had this idiotic censorship. We were allowed three Jesus Christs instead of 10. Why three were OK, I don't know.

I think, by and large, the level of acting is mediocre. When I go to the theatre, I get so angry. I don't go.

We had a relationship that lasted 44 years. Herbert and I lived together 10 years before we were married. He always gave me a little heart for whatever anniversary.

We must overcome the notion that we must be regular... it robs you of the chance to be extraordinary and leads you to the mediocre.

I won't go to England because they won't let my dog in.

I love going to the movies; I love watching good movie actors. They must know something I don't.

We must overcome the notion that we must be regular it robs you of the chance to be extraordinary and leads you to the mediocre.

To rebel or revolt against the status quo is in the very nature of an artist.

I am seriously opposed to censorship of any sort.

There is a fine line between censorship and good taste and moral responsibility.

One thing that success has taught me is censorship.

Assassination is the extreme form of censorship.

Censorship always defeats it own purpose, for it creates in the end the kind of society that is incapable of exercising real discretion.

Storytelling is the only studio movie where the censorship is perfectly clear, the only studio movie with a big red box covering up a shot. I take pride in that - and, of course, in having avoided the fate of Eyes Wide Shut.

Censorship of ideas or images or words is wrong.

Everyone has an opinion, and the guy screaming for censorship may be the next guy to have his ideas cut off.

Censorship, like charity, should begin at home, but, unlike charity, it should end there.

I do not believe in censorship, but I believe we already have censorship in what is called marketing theory, namely the only information we get in mainstream media is for profit.

The US constitution's First Amendment rights only cover Americans, but I believe that in a democracy the competition of ideas and free speech should combat beliefs that it does not agree with - more speech and debate, not censorship.

Censorship is a strange situation. There was times when people would burn books because they didn't like what people were doing.

We Negro writers, just by being black, have been on the blacklist all our lives. Censorship for us begins at the color line.

I'm opposed to censorship of any kind, especially by government. But it's plain common sense that producers should target their product with some kind of sensitivity.

There should be no censorship of mail.

The fact is that censorship always defeats its own purpose, for it creates, in the end, the kind of society that is incapable of exercising real discretion.

I think the best thing in cases of censorship or things like this is to get as much media as possible.

By placing discretion in the hands of an official to grant or deny a license, such a statute creates a threat of censorship that by its very existence chills free speech.

The censorship is such on television in the U.S. that films like mine don't stand a chance.

Censorship ends in logical completeness when nobody is allowed to read any books except the books that nobody reads.

I know that many writers have had to write under censorship and yet produced good novels; for instance, Cervantes wrote Don Quixote under Catholic censorship.

Censorship is the height of vanity.

But, uh, censorship at that time said that you just absolutely couldn't do anything involving children and so we had to go from there. I don't remember what I changed it to. Duvall is just excellent in it.

What is also strange to me is that public libraries have always been in the forefront of opposing censorship.

The Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.

The ultimate censorship is the flick of the dial.

Censorship is advertising paid by the government.

The only thing that is obscene is censorship.

Right now I think censorship is necessary; the things they're doing and saying in films right now just shouldn't be allowed. There's no dignity anymore and I think that's very important.
