I submit my body to righteousness when I do my good deeds without letting them be known, though my whole frame cries out to strut and crow.

And where am I in all this?

    Dust   Sick   Would Be

  • What happened is I was going to college in 1950. L. A. City College. A guy I knew was going to an acting class on Thursday nights. He started telling me about all the good-lookin' chicks and said, "Why don't you go with me?" So I probably had some motivation beyond thoughts of being an actor. And sure enough, he was right. There were a lot of girls and not many guys. I said, "Yeah, they need me here." I wound up at Universal as a contract player.
