I have never met a grateful performer in the movies.

I don't have ulcers; I give them.

It is still an open question, however, as to what extent exposure really injures a performer.

No performer should attempt to bite off red-hot iron unless he has a good set of teeth.

I never wanted to be a performer. I suppose I was precocious, really.

I was never a child actor. I was a child performer.
