"Sam is the only person I've ever physically threatened on a set." - Charlton Heston. "I want to be able to make westerns like [Akira Kurosawa] makes westerns." "The end of a picture is always an end of a life" "I don't want to hear it said that I don't like women! I tried to show in ['Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia' ] that I adore them. They represent the positive pole of the film, the life force and instinct." (Interview in Le Devoir. 10/12/74)
