Marlon Brando
Image
I put on an act sometimes, and people think I’m insensitive. Really, it’s like a kind of armor because I’m too sensitive. If there are two hundred people in a room and one of them doesn’t like me, I’ve got to get out.

If you're successful, acting is about as soft a job as anybody could ever wish for. But if you're unsuccessful it's worse than having a skin disease.
Marlon Brando

The most repulsive thing you could ever imagine is the inside of a camel's mouth. That and watching a girl eat octopus or squid.
Marlon Brando
Image
There's a line in the picture where he snarls, 'Nobody tells me what to do.' That's exactly how I've felt all my life.

Elvis Presley... had nothing to do with excellence, just myth.
