  • A smart performer knows when to get off. It wasn't a wrench leaving movies. I don't believe there's no business like show business.
  • [on Judy Garland] She was full of laughter. And pep. She didn't need pills, but the poor sucker got hooked on them. Not while she was on Oz. The pills started when she turned out pictures faster than Metro could make money on them.
