Hollywood... a city I was to come back to time and again, in sickness and in health, in success and in failure, with anticipation and with dread.

My favorite thing is to be alone in a room with a blank paper in front of me and the time to fill it.

Harrison Ford was pretty content as a carpenter who thought it would be nice to work on TV and ended up being the biggest film star in the history of cinema.

I loved sitting on my veranda sipping quality scotch, puffing a Cuban cigar and watching Cuba on the horizon, or the oceanic vista. Did this late in the evenings many times.

I am very willing to share whatever I know or feel I know about finding some serenity in this lifetime.

You can't leave civilization behind entirely.

Life has never been easy. Nor is it meant to be. It is a matter of being joyous in the face of sorrow.
