Glenn Ford quotes
" An actor should be ready to play any role within reason. For example, I think the most ridiculous thing for me to do would be to try and play Shakespeare. "

Glenn Ford
" An actor would be foolish to do something that might hold up the picture, or more importantly incapacitate him. If an actor does do a stunt he needs to make sure a stunt man stands by to see that it's done correctly. "

Glenn Ford
" Don't forget when you're going up you're looking at the side of the mountain. When you're going down, you're looking at nothing. "

Glenn Ford
" He was very commanding, and you had to know what you were doing to work for Mr. Rogers. I learned how to ride very quickly with him as my riding teacher. "

Glenn Ford
" I can't frankly see much difference in the film industry at all. The only difference might be that they don't take as much time as they used to. For example, they'll do in one day what we used to take a week to do. "

Glenn Ford
" I do all of my own riding. I've had good stunt men working with me over the years. They make things look better than they really are. "

Glenn Ford
" I don't know how it is now but the assistant stage manager had to understudy several parts. You had to be ready to go on at any time if the actor couldn't make it to the play. I didn't think anything of it. "

Glenn Ford
" I never thought I would become an actor. I never gave it a second thought because a long time ago, I was told I wasn't the type. I started as an assistant stage manager. I was Tallulah Bankhead's stage manager for three shows, for example. "

Glenn Ford
" I suddenly realized that the fellow who didn't show up was getting about fifty-times more money than I was getting. So I thought, 'this is silly,' and became an actor. I certainly never thought I'd wind up in motion pictures. That was far beyond anything I'd ever dreamed of. "

Glenn Ford
" I think the director is becoming more important. To work under rushed conditions, you need to have an extremely professional director. If the director's good than the end result will be good. "

Glenn Ford
" I was making a film called The White Tower at the foot of Mont Blanc - the one thing I learned from that experience was that it's more difficult to go down a mountain than to go up. A lot of people don't realize that. "

Glenn Ford
" If they try to rush me, I always say, I've only got one other speed and it's slower. "

Glenn Ford
" It really doesn't matter whether it's the villain or the hero. Sometimes the villain is the most colorful. But I prefer a part where you don't know what he is until the end. "

Glenn Ford
" Nothing ever changes as far as Westerns are concerned. They are the same today as they were years ago. "

Glenn Ford
" One thing led to another and I didn't have to take tickets any more because I now worked for Mr. Rogers. He said if I was going to take care of his horses than I'd better learn how to ride. He was very kind to me. "
