Rookies are also coming in from college programs as big stars, whereas when we came in, we were just happy to be there. We were happy to be playing in a big gym, to be on television, to be playing in America. ↗

Gary Cooper was a good friend. He was a great nature lover. He was like an American Indian, he knew every leaf that was turned over. It was an education to go for a walk with him. ↗

I was never a part of the Actor's Studio, because two friends of mine started it in 1947 and by that time I'd gone to California. ↗
