I used to spend most of my time straining to be a nice guy so people would like me.
A good director's not sure when he gets on the set what he's going to do.

The essence of the stage is concentration and penetration. Of the screen action, movement, sweep.
The belief that the good in American society will finally win out... I don't believe any more.
