On Thursday night, you'll be able to enjoy Paul Newman in Torn Curtain on AMC.  Here, as AMC says, "a double agent has to contend with enemies on both sides of the political fence as well as the woman he loves in this thriller directed by Alfred Hitchcock."

To celebrate Newman and the film, here are some smart Paul Newman quotes which I hope you'll enjoy.

-“You can't be as old as I am without waking up with a surprised look on your face every morning: 'Holy Christ, whaddya know - I'm still around!' It's absolutely amazing that I survived all the booze and smoking and the cars and the career.”

-“To be an actor you have to be a child.”

-“You only grow when you are alone.”

-“If you're playing a poker game and you look around the table and and can't tell who the sucker is, it's you.”

-“If you don't have enemies, you don't have character.”

-“Acting isn't really a creative profession. It's an interpretative one.”

-“Every time I get a script it's a matter of trying to know what I could do with it. I see colors, imagery. It has to have a smell. It's like falling in love. You can't give a reason why.”
