Mary Picford's director Marshall Neilan was quoted by Peter Milne during 1922 in the volume Motion Picture Directing. "Above all, I consider the director's appreciation of the human side of life his greatest assest. Unless a director is human down to the bery earth and appreciative of the tings in life that are common to the ordinary mortal, he cannot hope to any degree of success."
