Garbo was created by GARBO! True, such associates as Stiller, Thalberg, Adrian and indeed the entire Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer concern, provided their influences and guidance which modelled this relatively unknown Swedish actress into a world figure…but Greta Garbo herself, must in the final accounting, bear the responsibility for the creation—and perpetuation—of the legendary image she has become. It is HER face, HER talent, HER strength, will-power, and unerring instinct patterns, which, nearly twenty-five years after her last professional performance, still causes the name of GARBO to hold such an allure that her slightest move will still make newspaper columns all over the world.
- William Stephens in 1967
