I am looking at myself and feel so helpless , so small in front of them ... what great moving pictures be made .. in this realm of the year and years to come."

The veteran actor also shared the "the ultimate inadequacy of the profession".

"The ultimate inadequacy of the profession you are in is the learning with each day ... many lessons are learnt each hour .. as talent after talent swims across your frame, and the wonder in astonished wide eyed jaw flinching reverberations, that stand you up shake the foundations and get your next operations looked forward to in anticipation that the creativity has been maintained and the learning expanded," Big B shared.
