 But where there is no art show, I would still be painting. |
| While you're doing it, you don't really know what you're doing. |
| I look at everything in an artistic way. |
| The government gave me enough money to go to acting school. |
| Yes I'm still working, but my life's no longer filled with it. |
| I enlisted when I was a boy. The Navy looked after me like my mother. It fed me, took care of me and gave me wonderful opportunities. |
| I like Vegas for its spontaneity. |
| I was born in and worked in a period that could be called enviable. |
| At 17, I dreamed of seeing the world. At 19, I had been around the world and back. |
| Its not age as much as the experiences I have had. |
| They gave me away as a prize once - a Win Tony Curtis For A Weekend competition. The woman who won was disappointed. She'd hoped for second prize - a new stove. |
| I'm world famous, everywhere I go there are people who love me because of I've been able to bring them some joy from the movies I've made. |
| I wouldn't be caught dead marrying a woman old enough to be my wife. |
| Like an opera singer, I am able to sing out my song in paint. |
| For instance, I always have one hanging in Budapest in the mayors office. |
| We often don't think of them, we think of the great wars and the great battles, but what about losing a son or a daughter, or a girl losing her husband or vice versa? I think of the people who never got the chance to have the opportunities I had. |
| I've made 122 movies, and I daresay there's a picture of mine showing somewhere in the world every day. |
| I want the public to know that it will be an honor for me to meet them and spend a few special moments with all those who helped me through my filmed career. |
| Even on a personal note, my dressing table downstairs is crowded with things, like a mini landscape. It's a city with buildings and towers and roads. There's a pool and a little park. When I move something around it becomes a different tableau. |
| Painting is much more than therapy to me its a way of life. |
