Laurence Harvey - biography

“I’ve always lived above my income.  When I was earning one hundred dollars a week, I spent two hundred...  always borrowing against my future earnings.  That’s why I’m not the only one who wants me to be a success.”

“All the fuss about [Sarah Miles] appearing nude in this film [The Ceremony] amused me.  Her parents were shocked.  Their servants were surprised to see their young mistress in the nude.  I should’ve thought it a splendid way of keeping one’s domestic staff happy.”

“Certainly, Room At the Top was the first British film in which a man and a woman went to bed without one of them having one foot on the floor.”

“We English have sex on the brain.  Not the best place for it, actually.”
