I found a very diabolical way of making myself suffer - not in the same way [my mother ] was suffering but to prevent me from enjoying my own life.

Little surprises around every corner, but nothing dangerous.

Which one of us, anywhere in the world, doesn't yearn to be believed when the audience is watching?

So shines a good deed... in a weary world.

On stage or in the movies I could do whatever I wanted to. I was free.

I'm in complete remission. I'm alive and well.

My favorite author is Anton Chekhov, not so much for the plays but for his short stories, and I think he was really my tutor.
