Famous quotes by warren beatty:
“Louise Bryant: I’m sorry if you don’t believe in mutual independence and free love and respect.
Eugene O’Neill: Don’t give me a lot of parlor socialism that you learned in the village. If you were mine, I wouldn’t share you with anybody or anything. It would be just you and me. You’d be at the center of it all. You know it would feel a lot more like love than being left alone with your work.”
—Warren Beatty (b. 1937)
“Suddenly I’m dogmatic. Why does my status change every time you get a new woman, Jack?”
—Warren Beatty (b. 1937)
“Louise, something in me tightens when an American intellectual’s eyes shine, and they start to talk to me about the Russian people. Something in me says, Watch it, a new version of Irish Catholicism is being offered for your faith.”
—Warren Beatty (b. 1937)
“I’m not going to call a dog ‘Dog.’ I suppose if she were a baby you’d call her ‘Person.’”
—Warren Beatty (b. 1937)
