Quote by Jack Palance
Studio press agents make up anything they want to, and reporters go along with it. One flack created the legend that I had been blown up in an air crash during the war, and my face had to be put back together by way of plastic surgery. If it is a 'bionic face,' why didn't they do a better job of it?

They mockingly questions the efficacy of the supposed "bionic face," suggesting that if the story were true, the outcome should have been more convincing.
