Famous quotes by Jackie Cooper:

"If it's boring, then it's tiring."

"Well, they just don't know anything else except that one form of their business, acting, and they don't really want to learn any other part of it, or they would. Directing and producing and putting a show together is very creative, for me."

"A lot of people like to run in plays because it's a nice, steady job."

"To me, the series was the end of the actor, when the series ended."

"I hope this series is good work, but it is in the half-hour medium, which is limited to a kind of mediocrity that sponsors are just dying to have right now, and the public, for some reason, is unconsciously demanding."

"But the working I would always want to do."

"So I felt, well, I'll make the money and, with the money, do what I want to do."

"I got schooled over at NBC on a soap opera, and I had a Sunday-afternoon show, an hour show sponsored by the Ford Foundation, a documentary, half live with film integration. I directed that."

"There was nothing real about teenagers - nobody talked about them in those days, nobody did anything about them."

"For the child actor, it was difficult."

"A nice, steady job I don't need that bad. I'm not that satisfied with it."

"There was never any effort made out there to improve the artist."

"From that, I became very anxious to produce something of my own."

"In those days, even as a boy, I watched some people that I knew were living way beyond their means."

"The studio didn't ask them to learn their trade, they just worked them, and when that personality or that gimmick or whatever they had ran dry at the box office, they were dropped and out."

"I would also like to act, once in a while, but not get up every morning at 5:30 or six o'clock and pound into the studio and get home at 7:30 or eight o'clock at night, or act over and over and over every night on Broadway, either."

"They kept me in short pants as long as they could, until they were shaving the hair on my legs because it was beginning to photograph."

"They had to start shaving my chin when I was 12 years old because light started to pick it up."

"So if I keep making mistakes on Broadway or tape or film, producing, directing or acting, I can go along and do it - so long as I'm not investing too much capital in these things."

"So whatever I might have started to learn at that age was all undone by the next director and next crew in the next cheap picture, because I was allowed to get away with murder."
