- [on playing the Scarecrow in Das zauberhafte Land (1939)] I knew that I was taking part in a strange kind of adventure.
- [When asked how much money he made from the repeat showings of Das zauberhafte Land (1939), he and his wife often responded] No residuals, just immortality.
- [on Judy Garland] Judy was a child who never had any childhood. She was a child who never grew up.
- [Reacting to Judy Garland's death] She never had a chance to become a normal child - or a normal adult. She always had someone hovering over her. There should be a time in your life when you can go home at night and forget about show business, but Judy Garland never got to that point.
