There aren't many male stars - that's a loose term - like Kirk [Douglas] around. Most of those virile personalities have to keep working, continue the image because they can't do anything else. They don't even read. Their real identity is in making those pictures. They have to keep jumping on horses and hitting somebody on the head with a gun.
Elia Kazan
I was the true future. I understood Communism better than they did.
Elia Kazan

Elia Kazan
I will say nothing to an actor that cannot be translated into action.

Elia Kazan
I was always a self-conscious person.
Elia Kazan
