Exercise 68. Guess who said it. Match the quotation and the author (some personalities are

cited more than once). If you don’t know the person mentioned in the right
column browse the Internet to get some information about him/her.
| 1. I wish they could only take me as I am. | A. Jack Nicholson |
| 2. E-mail is far more convenient than the telephone, as far as I’m concerned. I would throw my phone away if I could get away with it. | B. Quentin Tarantino |
| 3. If I had my way, if I was lucky enough, if I could be on the brink my entire life – that great sense of expectation and excitement without the disappointment – that would be the perfect state. | C. Catherine Deneuve |
| 4. In other words, I wouldn’t like to be an actor if I could only be real. I like to get wild, behaviorally wild, and it’s crazy to think of any form where it’s just one way. | D. Vincent Van Gogh |
| 5. If I wasn’t a film-maker, I’d be a film critic. It’s the only thing I’d be qualified to do. | E. Steven Spielberg |
| 6. I’d rather direct than produce. Any day. And twice on Sunday. | F. Quentin Tarantino |
| 7. Being an actress is a very physical thing. If I didn’t look the way I looked, I would never have started in films. | G. Tom Hanks |
| 8. I have no regrets. I wouldn’t have lived my life the way I did if I was going to worry about what people were going to say. | H. Leonard Maltin |
| 9. My husband. He keeps me grounded. If I were in the world on my own, it would all be much more seductive. But I’m in a relationship that has nothing to do with the film world. | I. Vin Diesel |
| 10. If you had asked me back in grade school what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would have said my first choice was an actor, but if I couldn’t be that, I’d want to be a superhero. | J. Cate Blanchett |
| 11. I would be too selfish if I said everyone should see my movies more than once. To say that would mean I’m just marketing my work! | K.. Ingrid Bergman |
| 12. If I were less than honest as a critic, I think people would spot that right away, and it would destroy my credibility. | L. Marilyn Monroe |
| 13. If I really considered myself a writer, I wouldn’t be writing screenplays. I’d be writing novels. | M. Emily Watson |
| 14. I wish I knew why I am so anguished. | N. Abbas Kiarostami |
| 15. If I weren’t a director, I would want to be a film composer. | O. Spike Lee |
| 16. I think it would be very boring dramatically to have a film where everybody was a lawyer or doctor and had no faults. To me, the most important thing is to be truthful. | P. Alfred Hitchcock |
| 17. I am a typed director. If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach. | Q. Steven Spielberg |
