Eva Marie Saint

As you get older, you're doing different parts, but the young people, like yourself, they keep you excited, because they'll see Waterfront, and they'll want to talk about it.

People enjoy being read to, beginning from when they're little.

Actors can be good, say all these beautiful, wonderful things - but where does it come from? It comes from the writers, and people kind of forget that sometimes.

The longer you live, I believe, you learn so much about life that you have more to give.

I had an agent once who wanted me to make many more movies. I said, 'I can't. I can only do one a year, if that. I have children, young children.' And he said, 'Well, I guess you won't be a superstar.' And I said, 'Well, I guess not.'

I just want to do some movies that my children and my grandchildren would be proud of. That's my yardstick.

My mom lived to be 91, and her advice was, 'Honey, just keep moving.'
