I saw Jack during a TV interview and he gave the most marvelous progression of the five stages of an actor's career:

1. "Who's Jack Elam?"
2. "Get me somebody like Jack Elam."
3. "Get me JACK ELAM."
   4, "Get me a young Jack Elam."
4. "Who's Jack Elam?"

That's a VERY old quote, not about Jack Elam, but about alot of the old 30s/40's actors from the Studio days.
