“If I had to sit through one of my films twice, I’d go mad.  I tend to munch on popcorn, saying ‘No, no, you fool, you’re playing the scene wrong.  You’re lousing up the picture.  Come on, Lemmon, ACT!’”

Jack Lemmon

Happiness is working with Jack Lemmon. Everybody likes Jack, everybody. Even the men. They don’t get jealous if their wives have a crush on Jack Lemmon. —Billy Wilder

“On November 1st, 1959, the population of New York City was 8,042,783. If you laid all these people end to end, figuring an average height of five feet six and a half inches, they would reach from Times Square to the outskirts of Karachi, Pakistan. I know facts like this because I work for an insurance company - Consolidated Life of New York. We’re one of the top five companies in the country. Our home office has 31,259 employees, which is more than the entire population of uhh… Natchez, Mississippi. I work on the 19th floor. Ordinary Policy Department, Premium Accounting Division, Section W, desk number 861.” - The Apartment
