Quotable Quotes:

"My mama always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."

"We are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out."

"Let our advance worrying become advance thinking and planning."

"[on filming in Danzig in 1939 just before the German invasion of Poland] The Eyemo [movie camera] was heavy and could be noisy. Once I was in an auditorium filming a speech made by [Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels] when suddenly it decided to emit a huge snarling sound. Goebbels froze and hundreds of uniformed Brownshirts turned and glared at me in anger. It was not a comfortable moment." (IMDB)
