“I was twenty-one and Platoon had just won Best Picture and grossed $100 million. Suddenly you're not paying for meals or drinks. You don't drive any more. You get success. The more money you make, the less people want you to spend. It's very bizarre.”
Charlie Sheen

“I'll have to have a palace, of course. I may not be a princess, but I am a moviequeen, and every queen should have a palace.”
Jayne Mansfield

“People need to realise what real happiness and success is, because success as an actor is fleeting.”
Chuck Norris

“To be a success an actress must have the face of Venus, the brain of Minerva, the grace of Terpsichore, the memory or Macaulay, the figure of Juno and the hide of a rhinoceros.

Ethel Barrymore
