- The one thing the business lacks now is courtesy. As a producer, you're always ready and you're always expecting to get blitzed by someone; they don't like you or don't like the script you have. But in the old days at least we had a common respect for each other for having the chutzpah for doing it.
- Working at the Studio in the 1950s: I'll tell you the one great thing about FOX in those days, they'd never pay much money, but you could put in for all the expenses you had. I'd get a small paycheck each week then charge another two-hundred dollars in expenses. It was great! I'll tell you one more story on that topic. All of us working there made so little money that we'd go to the FOX music division, take the soundtrack albums, for, lets say the movie A Farewell to Arms (1957), and we'd go down to the department store and trade them in for shirts and underwear.
