Cedric Hardwicke - biography

“Actors must practice restraint, else think what might happen in a love scene.”

“When actors are talking, they are servants of the dramatist.  It is what they can show the audience when they are not talking that reveals the fine actor.”

“England is my wife, America my mistress.  It is very good sometimes to get away from one’s wife.”

“I believe that God felt sorry for actors so he created Hollywood to give them a place in the sun and a swimming pool.  The price they had to pay was to surrender their talent.”
