Frank Serpico: How come all your friends are on their way to bein' someone else?
Lt. Col. Frank Slade: The day we stop lookin', Charlie, is the day we die.
[repeated line] Lt. Col. Frank Slade: Where's the booze? Flowin' like mud around here.
I would have preferred to be successful here with a piece that cost me a huge amount of money and effort... rather than sending to Bohemia some ordinary works.
Everybody thought I was crazy. They thought I should take the money and run. But there was just something special about being a senior at Chapel Hill. I just couldn't leave.
There is little doubt that we are in the midst of a revolution of a much more profound and fundamental nature than the social and political revolutions of the last half century.
I'm a private person by nature. I live in my brain half the time, not the world, and I'm not a natural negotiator. But I've learned to negotiate.

I believe that if you reject and don't respect what you have now, that's ingratitude. I'm grateful for everything I have today.
Look, none of the artists who I admire or respect have ever shied away from a role because it might make them unpopular with somebody.
I have so much respect for television actors and directors. We're on set doing 16-hour days, and that's just what we do.
Someone once told me that if you respect a person, listen to their opinion. And if you do not respect someone, then do not listen to their opinion. And that works both ways.
The whites come to applaud a Negro performer just like the colored do. When you've got the respect of white and colored, you can ease a lot of things.
