- It's a fascinating business. It's fun. It has its ups and downs, but I'm grateful I've been in it.
- [In an interview with Tom Weaver in which he asked if Sholem had any favorites among his 1300 credits] No, no--I enjoyed 'em all. They were great; they were fun. It was enjoyable; it was a great life--BUT I sure wouldn't want to be doing it now.
- [on George Reeves] . . . what a sweetheart--everybody loved him, you couldn't help it. He had no ego, none of this crap that you get from most of these guys.
- [on Lex Barker] He was an egomaniac--I mean REALLY an egomaniac. He had a birthday while we were shooting one of those "Tarzan" pictures, and the crew got together and purchased a great big mirror for him . . . He was a real egotist, and that's about as much as I can say for Lex.
- [on how he came to be hired as a director on "Adventures of Superman" (1952)] I was up for six pictures at Universal. They told me I'd have a better crack at the series than I would at Universal, and I said, "All right, I'll take it".
