"Oh, gentlemen, perhaps I really regard myself as an intelligent man only because throughout my entire life I've never been able to start or finish anything. Granted, granted I'm a babbler, a harmless, irksome babbler, as we all are. But what's to be done if the sole and express purpose of every intelligent man is babble--that is, a deliberate pouring from empty into void."

"We taped all this and then got it transcribed and picked the best lines or ideas or ways to take a scene. I've done that many times, and it can improve the script but also wreck a perfectly good scene."

Creativity

John Schlesinger
"Oh, the relationship with actors and managers and agents and things is a terrible problem sometimes."

Actor

Quote_1.png
John Schlesinger
"I have a feeling he felt Jon Voight had run away with the film, which he didn't, though he was brilliant in it, in a much less easy part. I just don't know what had got into him, but something had."

Emotional

Quote_1.png
John Schlesinger
"I thought his performance was absolutely wonderful and had said so, but he seemed, as actors quite often are when they first see.something, to be disappointed. I think he expected more from the film and himself."

Thought

Quote_1.png
John Schlesinger
"There are certain actors who are very good at improvising, like Dustin Hoffman and Glenda Jackson."

John Schlesinger
"I met a hustler at a dinner party. He had been invited because I was looking for an adviser to help me with the street scenes. So we put him on the film."
