“I know that the greatest of actresses has about 20 good years of acting in her and that she will go on living for 30 or 40 years as a human being. So, the conclusion I have come to is that I can’t make acting my whole life.”

[1977 comment on Robert Aldrich] A very good director. Beyond that, he has one fault: he is inflexible. He’s horrified if you give him ideas; he only appreciates his own. He wants to use his own brain for everything. That’s his greatest fault. If he wasn’t so inflexible he would be very great. He refuses to give in. Well, it’s impossible for one man to know everything.

It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.

The rich are always going to say that, you know, just give us more money and we’ll go out and spend more and then it will all trickle down to the rest of you. But that has not worked the last 10 years, and I hope the American public is catching on.

Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.

I buy expensive suits. They just look cheap on me.

Of the billionaires I have known, money just brings out the basic traits in them. If they were jerks before they had money, they are simply jerks with a billion dollars.

[on forward-thinking] Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.
