The more sensitive you are, the more likely you are to be brutalised, develop scabs and never evolve. Never allow yourself to feel anything because you always feel too much.


The only thing an actor owes his public is not to bore them.


An actor is at most a poet and at least an entertainer.


Would people applaud me if I were a good plumber?


I don't know what people expect when they meet me. They seem to be afraid that I'm going to piss in the potted palm and slap them on the ass.


I put on an act sometimes, and people think I'm insensitive. Really, it's like a kind of armour because I'm too sensitive. If there are two hundred people in a room and one of them doesn't like me, I've got to get out.


If you're successful, acting is about as soft a job as anybody could ever wish for. But if you're unsuccessful, it's worse than having a skin disease.


(On one of his most famous characters, Stanley Kowalski from A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)) "Kowalski was always right, and never afraid. He never wondered, he never doubted. His ego was very secure. And he had the kind of brutal aggressiveness that I hate. I'm afraid of it. I detest the character."


I don't want to spread the peanut butter of my personality on the mouldy bread of the commercial press.


The most repulsive thing you could ever imagine is the inside of a camel's mouth. That and watching a girl eat octopus or squid.


With women, I've got a long bamboo pole with a leather loop on the end. I slip the loop around their necks so they can't get away or come too close. Like catching snakes.


I don't think it's the nature of any man to be monogamous. Men are propelled by genetically ordained impulses over which they have no control to distribute their seed.


An actor's a guy who, if you ain't talking about him, ain't listening.


If there's anything unsettling to the stomach, it's watching actors on television talk about their personal lives.


(On Frank Sinatra) "He's the kind of guy that when he dies, he's going up to heaven and give God a bad time for making him bald."
