"For a long while, I wouldn`t talk about it at all. I do now, because there`s a whole new generation that doesn`t remember. And the more one knows, the more one can see, and not allow history to repeat itself." - Kim Hunter, referring to her "blacklisting"
- Kim Hunter(on the studios` blacklisting of alleged "subversives" in Hollywood) If it is for the FBI, I will do anything for them. If they want me to I will even be photographed with an agent and point out a Communist for them. Tell Mr. Hoover (FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover) I am on his side.
- John WayneThe aftermath of the war is what inspired us to write many of our plays. The whole reason for our writing Inherit the Wind was that we were appalled at the blacklisting. We were appalled at thought control.
- Jerome Lawrence
