Timothy Carey's quotes
- You can't leave the film industry to the money people, they degrade it, they make people nothing.
- [on whether he ever drank or did drugs] No, I'm a teetotaler. I never even smoked. People were always offering me grass or cocaine. I got my own cocaine -- my own personality. I am cocaine. What do I need that stuff for?
- If you wanna be a good actor, go to the zoo and watch the rhino -- look at the way he moves. Watch the weasel, every part involves a new body pattern.
- The truth is, I never really cared about conventional success. I was probably fired more than any other actor in Hollywood.
- [from a 1957 interview] I'm a big sort of lummox with an innate scorn for convention, an ambition to be a great actor that burns my insides, contempt for clothes and contempt for what other people think.
- I wanted to be a singer, but I was tone deaf, they said. So they put me in dramatic class. I really liked that. This was good training; this was the Stanislavsky method.
- [from a 1957 interview] I never walk through a scene. Whatever I do I do with enthusiasm -- and it didn't take me long to find out that the more enthusiastic I got about my work the less enthusiastic some of my fellow players got about me.
- Acting is an intimate thing -- dealing with emotions. The script is only a blueprint -- not the final product. You've got to take the character and become it. You've got to live the role.
- Every time a policeman gets a look at me I can see the wheels starting to turn in his head. He's positive that I'm on his "wanted" list for at least three major crimes.
- I can't even take a stroll through a park. As soon as women see my face they start gathering up their children and running for home.
- [from a 1968 newspaper interview] Characters as evil as the ones I play just can't be allowed to remain in society. The only time I managed to "stay alive" all the way through a picture was when I wrote and produced one myself.
- Why are people afraid of me? One producer thought I was on dope. I don't even drink or smoke. I'm just enthusiastic. I don't need any stimulation.
- I've been in and out of more jails on vagrancy charges -- the police always arrest me on suspicion because I look suspicious.
- [from a 1957 newspaper article] People are finally beginning to understand me. The trouble is, people in Hollywood never saw a guy like me before. They think I'm a man from another planet.
