When I was on the rod in ‘Everywoman,’ I didn’t see Mr. Julian for almost two years.” — Elsie Jane Wilson

“We [husband Rupert Julian] like the same kind of pictures, but we have such different ideas of how to get the same effects that if we ever talked over our work, we’d fight all the time.” — Elsie Jane Wilson
