Suicide is no more than a trick played on the calendar.

My scripts are possibly too talkative.

Wars are fought for oil wells and coaling stations; for control of the Dardanelles or the Suez Canal; for colonial pickings to buy cheap in and conquered markets to sell dear in. War is capitalism with the gloves off.

Be happy -- if you're not even happy, what's so good about surviving?

Personally I am in favour of education but a university is not the place for it.

Happiness is equilibrium. Shift your weight. Equilibrium is pragmatic. You have to get everything into proportion. You compensate, rebalance yourself so that you maintain your angle to your world. When the world shifts, you shift.

One of the nice things about the world of filmmaking is that you make friends in the business.
