Citas

[on Jean Seberg during the making of Macho Callahan (1970)] She was terribly sensitive, almost like a little girl. We shot in a village outside Mexico City one day, and they set up tables for the cast and crew to eat. These skinny dogs wandered over, and Jean started to feed them off her plate. Someone snapped that you don't do that - not when there were people going hungry. Jean looked awfully hurt and didn't eat for two days after that. I personally considered her a great lady and a wonderful human being. A lady of sensitive, thought-out, careful choice and depth, and select caring.

I was really upset and chagrined by the studios' greed and corruption of putting leading lady stars into my Oscar category of best supporting.

I'm not an actor. I'm a teacher. The screen or the stage is my blackboard, and so whatever I taught is what's in you. It's reflecting you, saint or sinner, male or female, child or old person. I'm reflecting parts of your soul, parts of who you are. The work is for you.
