Famous quotes by Jack Lemmon:

"Nobody deserves this much money - certainly not an actor."

"Some Like It Hot, Nobody's perfect."

"We're doing very serious stuff. But some of the stuff we pull with each other in between is not serious at all, and also not repeatable."

"We're doing very serious stuff, ... But some of the stuff we pull with each other in between is not serious at all, and also not repeatable."

"I was lying 10th and had a 350foot putt. I whispered over my shoulder: `How does this one break?' And my caddie said `Who cares?'"

"[For his part, Lemmon says he's proud to work with Scott, and hopes to do it again.] Any actor that ever works with George C. Scott is going to say, 'I'd be very happy working with Mr. Scott for the rest of my life,' ... And I feel that way, I really do."

"How do you know that God didn't speak to Charles Darwin?"

"I think whatever you do, if you are going to do it well or even if you don't do it well, you have to have a passion for it, and I am passionate about it. I love it. I respect it and it gets me. I get off on acting,"

"Stay humble. Always answer the phone -- no matter who else is in the car."

"It can be a simple sentence that makes one single point, and you build for that. You zero in on one moment that gets that character, you go for it, that's it, man, and if you fail the whole thing is down the drain, but if you make it you hit the moon."
