But nothing is better than the market, where the customer and the business deal directly with each other, because if you rip people off, word gets out.

People think I've got a problem with the press. Actually I have no problem with the press, but just like in football there are a handful who cause problems because they're disrespectful, they're lazy, and above all - and this is what really gets to me - they haven't worked hard to get there. ↗

I remember feeling that Michael was extremely sensitive when it came to that moment. Most directors are and they usually rely, at least in my experience, on the actress to take over. And Michael is a gentleman. ↗

I could be happy doing something like architecture. It would involve another couple of years of graduate school, but that's what I studied in college. That's what I always wanted to do. ↗

Perpetual devotion to what a man calls his business is only to be sustained by perpetual neglect of many other things. ↗
