organization is the religion of the single parent.

It is completely usual for me to get up in the morning, take a look around, and laugh out loud.

If we can't, as artists, improve on real life, we should put down our pencils and go bake bread.

People's dreams are made out of what they do all day. The same way a dog that runs after rabbits will dream of rabbits. It's what you do that makes your soul, not the other way around.

All of the promises of politicians, generals, madmen, and crusaders that war can create peace have yet to be borne out.

Your dreams, what you hope for and all that, it's not separate from your life. It grows right up out of it.

Children can be your heartache. But that doesn't matter, you have to go on and have them . . . it works out.
