Today's quote of the day comes from the legendary German actor Conrad Veidt (1893-1943) who made over 100 films even though he died at age 50 from a heart attack while playing gold.
Some of his most significant films included "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari"
(1919), "The Man Who Laughed" (1928) and "Casablanca" (1942).
Veidt was an ardent political opponent of the Nazi movement and since his wife was Jewish he felt no need to stick around in Germany, but his broken English made it hard for him to get quality roles in Hollywood.
Here is his quote:
"An actor remembers his first piece of published praise. It is written on his heart."
