All tedious research is worth one inspired moment.

We had a relationship that lasted 44 years. Herbert and I lived together 10 years before we were married. He always gave me a little heart for whatever anniversary.

I think, by and large, the level of acting is mediocre. When I go to the theatre, I get so angry. I don't go.

I love going to the movies; I love watching good movie actors. They must know something I don't.

The actor must know that since he, himself, is the instrument, he must play on it to serve the character with the same effortless dexterity with which the violinist makes music on his. Just because he doesn't look like a violin is no reason to assume his techniques should be thought of as less difficult.

It must be noted that it is often the colleague or direct disciple of a new thinker who gets stuck in literal interpretations of the work, tending to freeze the new ideas and language into an inflexible, static condition.

Keep pace with the present. Take a trip to the moon. envision the future.
