People always say to me, 'It must have been wonderful coming from old Hollywood, with all those movie stars,' but I never knew anyone. I didn't even know who Charlie Chaplin was. My parents really kept me away from it all.
Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
The independents who were our fiercest competitors all succumbed to the one-hit-makes-you-a-genius philosophy. It is a mistake to think you have the magic touch. Show business is roulette. If you start to play for stakes you can't afford, there's no way you can survive.
Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
When someone does something good, applaud! You will make two people happy.

Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
I don't want any yes-men around me. I want everybody to tell me the truth even if it costs them their job.

Color television! Bah, I won't believe it until I see it in black and white.

Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
That's the trouble with directors. Always biting the hand that lays the golden egg.
Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
Give me a couple of years, and I'll make that actress an overnight success.
Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
From success you get a lot of things, but not that great inside thing that love brings you.
Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
The reason so many people turned up at his funeral is that they wanted to make sure he was dead.
Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
I hate a man who always says 'yes' to me. When I say 'no' I like a man who also says 'no.'
Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
Some of the regrets I've had about my own career are things I have not done that I should have done. More than some of the things that I've done.
Quote by -Samuel Goldwyn
Pictures are for entertainment, messages should be delivered by Western Union.
