    Oh no, it wasn’t the aviators, it was beauty that killed the beast.
    James Creelman, screenwriter, Ruth Rose, screenwriter, Merian Cooper, and Ernest Schoedsack. Carl Denham (Robert Armstrong)

    He doesn’t want you for friends, that’s why he did it. You see, when guys have been in the line as long as we have, you find out it’s no good to make friends, ‘cause when a friend gets it—well, it’s rough on you. The buddies that come with you you’re stuck with, but you don’t make no new ones. It’s the dyin’ truth.
    Gil Doud, U.S. screenwriter, and Jessie Hibbs. Johnson (Marshall Thompson)
