Get me inside any boardroom and I'll get any decision I want.

I was so thrilled being a reporter, because it gave you the kind of access to people that you wouldn't ever get to meet.

I like plays where people talk a lot. Conversation is sustained. Argument is sustained.

It's silly to be depressed by it. I mean one thinks of it like being alive in a box, one keeps forgetting to take into account the fact that one is dead, which should make all the difference, shouldn't it? I mean, you'd never know you were in a box would you?... Even taking into account the fact that you're dead, it isn't a pleasant thought. Especially if you're dead, really. Ask yourself, if I asked you straight off-- I'm going to stuff you in this box now would you rather be alive or dead? Naturally you'd prefer to be alive. Life in a box is better than no life at all.

Childhood is Last Chance Gulch for happiness. After that, you know too much.

When I think of how things could have turned out, I feel as if I've dodged, not just bullets, but 6mm shells.

I think that the present is worth attention, one shouldn't sacrifice it to future conceptions of, of this future or that future.
