I have lived too completely. I think I have known every human emotion.

People, chained by monotony, afraid to think, clinging to certainties... they live like ants.

I studied at the Budapest Academy of Theatrical Arts for four years and emerged with a degree.

My body grew hot, then cold. I tried to eat the bed sheets. My heart beat madly. Every joint in my body ached. When I took the cure they took it all away from me.

In Hungary, acting is a profession. In America, it is a decision.

In Hungary, acting is a career for which one fits himself as earnestly as one studies for a degree in medicine, law, or philosophy.

The role seemed to demand that I keep myself worked up to fever pitch, so I took on the actual attributes of the horrible vampire, Dracula.

I guess I'm pretty much of a lone wolf. I don't say I don't like people at all, but, to tell you the truth, I only like it then if I have a chance to look deep into their hearts and their minds.

To win a woman, take her with you to see Dracula.

In making theories, always keep a window open so that you can throw one out if necessary.

It is women who bear the race in bloody agony. Suffering is a kind of horror. Blood is a kind of horror. Women are born with horror in their very bloodstream. It is a biological thing.

A dream doesn't come true by itself... we must pull it.

To doubt is to deny the divinity of being.

Philosophy finds it an easy matter to vanquish past and future evils, but the present are commonly too hard for it.

There's nothing as scary as the future.

You can take anything, and if you explore it right, you can make it funny.

Two or three tons of rock can really get you down-and keep you there.

Falling down became second nature and it really didn't bother me.

Knowledge isn't always good for you.

As a yoga practitioner with some understanding of how karma works, you have to ask the question, "If I am seeking liberation, will it serve my purpose to rob other beings of their freedom?"

Human potential, though not always apparent, is there waiting to be discovered and invited forth.
