Quotable Quotes:

"A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow. "

"Spencer Tracy was the first actor I've seen who could just look down into the dirt and command a scene. He played a set-up with Robert Ryan that way [in Bad Day at Black Rock (1955)]. He's looking down at the road and then he looks at Ryan at just the precise, right minute. I tell you, Rob could've stood on his head and zipped open his fly and the scene would've still been Mr. Tracy's." (IMDB)
