“I have no bad feelings about actors getting $20 million a picture or more. They won't give you a dime in this town unless you can make them a dollar. No producer is going to give anybody $20 million if he doesn't think he's going to make much more.”
Rod Steiger

“If someone's dumb enough to offer me a million dollars to make a picture, I am certainly not dumb enough to turn it down.”
Liz Taylor

“I am paid not to think.”
Clark Gable

“Whenever a critic mentions the salary of an actor, I'm thinking, He's not talking about the movie.”
Harold Ramis

“The more I work, the more I can take. But I guess I couldn't keep this place the rest of my life. And I pull my own strings, no matter what you read about the studio setting out deliberately to mold a new star to replace Rita Hayworth. If they were going to do that, they'd have dyed my hair red.”
Kim Novak
