“Writers used to make such wonderful pictures without all that swearing...” — Ernest Borgnine Quote

Writers used to make such wonderful pictures without all that swearing, all that cursing. And now it seems that you can't say three words without cursing. And I don't think that's right.

My mother made me do all the housework as a boy. I still do it, even in hotels.

I've been to a number of places and seen for myself the caliber of people who are in the Navy today - in all the services for that matter. This is an altogether different bunch. These people of today are really bright, young, good people.

I don't chart out the life histories of the people I play. If I did, I'd be in trouble. I work with my heart and my head, and naturally emotions follow.

I grew up cursing a lot.

Some men storm imaginary Alps all their lives, and die in the foothills cursing difficulties which do not exist.

I know that cursing isn't for everybody, but it is definitely for me.

I was raised to think cursing makes you look unintelligent.

I'm trying to cut down my cursing.
