"Wim Wenders: I didn't come here to talk about dying Nic... but we might have to. Nicholas Ray: But we might have to? Wim Wenders: I was looking forward to seeing you, because I need your advice. You told me on the phone that you wanted to see me, but I was afraid to come too. And I think I'd rather tell you right now; why. I was aware that I'd see you in weakness, and... that... you might be worried about being seen this way. But I feel it's okay now. There is something else that came to my mind in the plane last night, that I'm actually more afraid of. I thought that I could find myself being attracted to your weakness, or to your suffering, and... if I realized I was, I think I would have to leave you. It would feel like abusing you... or betraying you. Nicholas Ray: That won't happen. Wim Wenders: Good! So what are our plans for the rest of the day?"
"Nicholas Ray: [lecturing] We are starting this new film of ours with about the same amount of head-start that we had on, The Lusty Men. A little backstory behind it, is that we started shooting with 26 pages of script, and then we wrote every night. So, there wasn't much besides instinct and reactions of my actors to what we had done the day before; to what we were going to do the next day. So, there was no possibility of meticulous 'Henry James-type' construction. The closer I get to my ending... the closer I am getting to rewriting my beginning. And certainly by the end, by the last page... umm, the climax has reconditioned the opening. And the opening usually changes."
