I will never forget the pleasure and instruction I derived from working with a true master of his art, such as Edward G. Robinson was - and is. Surely his record for versatility, studied characterization - ranging from modern colloquial to the classics - and artistic integrity is unsurpassed.
I never tried to emulate my father. Anyone trying to do that would be a second-rate carbon copy.
I had no particular desire to be a personality like my father, nor was I equipped to be one. I was determined to be my own man, although having the Fairbanks name did make it easier to get into an office to see someone.
I was only saying to the Queen the other day how I hate name dropping.
I never kissed my father until he was on his death bed.
