Miriam Hopkins's quotes
- I'm a bad judge of a play or film. I turned down It Happened One Night (1934). It won Claudette Colbert an Oscar. I said it was just a silly comedy.
- How can a motion picture reflect real life when it is made by people who are living artificial lives?
- [on being directed in 'Virginia City' by Michael Curtiz] (He was) a complete madman - mad and adorable. For twelve weeks he yelled at me and I yelled back at him. We're exactly alike.
- TV is the toughest medium because there's more strain, but the theatre requires the most work. Movies are the easiest. You can sip coffee between takes.
- Me temperamental? I never was. Proof of that is that I made four pictures with Willie Wyler, who is a very demanding director. I made two with Rouben Mamoulian who is the same. Two with Ernst Lubitsch, such a dear man.
- I will never retire. Put that down and underline it. The world is too nice - and so have been all the breaks.
