[On Badlands (1973)] I tried to keep the 1950s to a bare minimum. Nostalgia is a powerful feeling; it can drown out anything. I wanted the picture to set up like a fairy tale, outside time, like Treasure Island. I hoped this would, among other things, tak...
Terrence Malick
[1973] I`ve been allowed a few more years - I hope. My lung capacity is naturally limited now, but I had a pretty good set before the disease hit me, so it isn`t too noticeable in my everyday life.
John Wayne
That was first thing I ever did that I could actually stand to watch on screen - the first time I wasn`t acutely mortified. - On The Long Goodbye (1973)
Sterling Hayden
[from 1973] All I want to do is get better and quantity can help me to solve my problems. I`m thrilled by the idea that I`m not even sure how many films I`ve done. If I don`t have a script I adore, I do one I like. If I don`t have one I like, I do one tha...
Sidney Lumet
[On being nominated for an Oscar for the third time for The Last Detail (1973)] "The first time I was up for an Oscar, I thought I would win it. But I didn`t have as sharp a view as I do now. The second time...I expected to lose, and deservedly lose, to G...
Jack Nicholson
[On his separation from third wife Pilar Wayne in 1973] We have separated, and it`s a sad incident in my life. It is family and personal. I`d rather keep it that way.
John Wayne
[on Kris Kristofferson] I like Kris because he writes poetry and he`s a fucking good man. Working with Kris on Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid (1973) was one of the great experiences of my life.
Sam Peckinpah
[on John Wayne] I gave him a piece of material that I thought had potential for us to do as a younger guy and an older guy. He wrote me back critical of it. He had seen High Plains Drifter (1973), and he didn`t think that represented Americana like She Wo...
Clint Eastwood
[December 1973] They`re trying to crucify Nixon [Richard Nixon], but when they`re writing the history of this period, Watergate will be no more than a footnote. Believe me, I have a high respect for the bulldogged way in which our President has been able ...
John Wayne
[1973] My build-up was done through constant exposure. By the time I went overseas to visit our boys during the Second World War, they had already seen my movies when they were back home. Now their kids are grown up and their kids are seeing my movies. I`...
John Wayne
[while considering doing Star Wars (1977)]: Science fiction - which gives me pause - but it is to be directed by George Lucas, who did American Graffiti (1973), which makes me think I should. Big part. Fairytale rubbish, but could be interesting.
Alec Guinness
[on working with Clint Eastwood on Breezy (1973)] He`s even-tempered -- a personality trait not much in evidence among directors. The crew is totally behind him and that really helps things go smoothly.
William Holden
On getting the role of "Reagan MacNeil" in The Exorcist (1973): "I wanted to be a princess. I wanted to be in Disney movies, I wanted to be in "Lassie", I wanted to be in "Flipper", I didn`t want to be a monster".
Linda Blair
[On turning down the role played by Robert Redford in The Sting (1973)] "I liked the period, the whole project and I knew it would be commercial. But at the time, I needed to put my energies into a movie that really needed them. I needed to take a risk".
Jack Nicholson
[1973 comment on Anthony Quinn] At his best he`s a marvelous actor and he`s a very instinctive actor. He has a sort of animal quality, although I think he`s got a bit stuck with it. He`s a larger than life character. He`s that without trying before he sta...
Alan Bates
[on doing Scarecrow (1973) with Gene Hackman] Gene and I are two people not very similar. We had to play a very close relationship, but I just didn`t think we were as connected as we should have been. We seemed apart. We didn`t have altercations, we didn`...
Al Pacino
[On her Best Actress nomination for Summer Wishes, Winter Dreams (1973)] "I remember when I first won the Academy Award, and how much I loved it. I just wish there was an award around that you could really believe in again".
Joanne Woodward
When the company first got started, we were in my mom and dad`s house, in 1973, and the office was in my bedroom. My dad started teaching me about statistics when I was in fourth grade, things I wouldn`t see in school until college. I`ve always found this...
David James
We are not at the same place we were in 1973. This country today is drifting, moving steadily towards the pro-life position because the data is with us.
Amy Newman
The Endangered Species Act (ESA) was originally enacted in 1973 with the primary function being recovery of endangered and threatened species.
Alex Walker
In 1973, women got 59 cents on the dollar; now we are getting 74 cents on the dollar. In the area of finance and business, we are at 68 cents on the dollar.
Billie Jean King
In 1973, America imported 30 percent of its crude oil needs. Today, that number has doubled to more than 60 percent. Gas prices are as high as they are now in part because we`ve had no comprehensive national energy policy for the past few decades.
Gary Miller
I took a workshop from him a few months after that. That experience changed my whole approach to photography. At that workshop in Yosemite in 1973 I decided I wanted to try and see if I could pursue this for myself, and I`m still trying.
Allan Brophy
