“New York's like a boxing match. In Hollywood, it's like a Fellini movie or something.”

“Every one who is any one in Hollywood is a shark, whether they know it or not. They may not look like a shark, smell like a shark, or even act like a shark, but you can be sure, if they made it in Hollywood, somewhere, there’s some shark in them.”
Bruce Edwin
“Some say Hollywood movies that are made about boxing are just metaphors for other things, I think I've made one that's actually about boxing and not a metaphor.”
Walter Hill
“Most Hollywood boxing movies are metaphors. Your movie is not a metaphor. It's really about boxing.”
“Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.”
Marilyn Monroe
“I used to think as I looked at the Hollywood night, 'there must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me, dreaming of becoming a movie star. But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest.'”
“The only "ism" Hollywood believes in is plagiarism.”
Dorothy Parker
