My favorite film is Gene Tierney and Tyrone Power in The Razor's Edge.

I've been doing Tai Chi on and off for 20 years. The fundamentals of all martial arts are the same.

Peter Ustinov was the first really positive influence in my career. He was real and he bore witness to it. The things he said to you, he lived them.

A lot of people only see me as villains.

My star was kind of fading towards the end of the '60s and suddenly I got this call from Fellini, who just appeared to kind of love me!

When I tested for Billy Budd, I had that kind of confidence that comes with the certainty that you're not going to get something. I was very rough around the edges.

It wasn't until I saw James Dean that I began to think that maybe I could actually do this. Movies didn't have to be just this fantasy with this impossibly handsome guy.

All actors are incredibly insecure.

With Fellini, the fear dropped out of my work because it was such a happy experience... hanging out with Fellini, having pasta on the set with Fellini, and going out with Fellini!

A lot of young directors, they're not confident; they're not open to the emotional level of the scene.

As a boy I believed I could make myself invisible. I'm not sure that I ever could, but I certainly had the ability to pass unnoticed.

I would do most anything to make you happy, Howel, if you'd let me. I would become your servant, lay whatever you wanted at your feet.

Amid the pointing and the horror the clean flame.

This is one of the two great labyrinths into which human minds are drawn: the question of free will versus predestination.

If the imagination is to transcend and transform experience it has to question, to challenge, to conceive of alternatives, perhaps to the very life you are living at the moment.

The object of teaching a child is to enable the child to get along without the teacher. We need to educate our children for their future, not our past.

I would like to know how it feels for my desperation to get louder.

How can I be of the greatest service doing that which I most enjoy doing?

The one thing ... maybe no family could tolerate was things coming out into the open.

Freedon succeeds from the moment people stop looking to others to improve their lives and start taking responsibility.

It's a very complicated landscape and I don't think there's one easy answer about it [Edard Snowden movie].
