I always always meant to be on stage. I only ended up even auditioning for television and movies because I was understudying a Turgenev play on Broadway and was so broke that when I got a mini-series I had to take it and was so ashamed because I was such a snob.

I was a very interested arts student I was always into that part of school and when I got into high school I went into architectural drafting. It gave me an understanding of how to build things and it's really helped me put things in perspective. With my music and my movies to me it's all art.

I don't blame folks for not wanting to put me in their movies or whatever. I understand if their audiences had an association with me.

You have to understand that crew members make movies so they're seeing a lot of actors all the time in their career acting.

I think these movies are as much for people of that time as for people who weren't born. For people who weren't born they see how leaders must act under a crisis situation not trying to be re-elected or not trying to check polls that they go from their gut check.

Making movies is a way of understanding myself and the world.

I had done some flimflam movies but I didn't understand what being an actor meant anymore.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

In a few days an officer came to our camp under a flag of truce and informed Hamilton then a captain of artillery but afterwards the aid of General Washington that Captain Hale had been arrested within the British lines condemned as a spy and executed that morning.

Remember that God under the Law ordained a Lamb to be offered up to Him every Morning and Evening.

I have come to understand and appreciate writers much more recently since I started working on a book last fall. Before that I thought golf writers got up every morning played a round of golf had lunch showed up for our last three holes and then went to dinner.

I remember being at school during morning meeting and looking around at everybody 350 kids saying a prayer. We're all very young and no one knows what it means and I remember feeling strange that people were just repeating words that they didn't understand. I refused to participate. For some reason I always rejected it but respectfully.

I went to dance classes from 9 in the morning until 1 then to school from 3 to 10 at night always under the threat that if I failed a single course I could forget about dancing.

One's age should be tranquil as childhood should be playful. Hard work at either extremity of life seems out of place. At midday the sun may burn and men labor under it but the morning and evening should be alike calm and cheerful.

The muse holds no appointments. You can never call on it. I don't understand people who get up at 9 o'clock in the morning put on the coffee and sit down to write.

A city with one newspaper or with a morning and an evening paper under one ownership is like a man with one eye and often the eye is glass.

We were doing it under the most extraordinary circumstances but the first out of the tent in the morning would be David Lean. He said to me on the very first day of shooting Pete this is the beginning of a great adventure.

I'm not one of those writers I learned about who get up in the morning put a piece of paper in their typewriter machine and start writing. That I've never understood.

My heart is singing for joy this morning! A miracle has happened! The light of understanding has shone upon my little pupil's mind and behold all things are changed!

I spend my happiest hours in reading Vedantic books. They are to me like the light of the morning like the pure air of the mountains - so simple so true if once understood.

This morning when I put on my underwear I could hear the fruit-of-the-loom guys laughing at me.

There is a basic lesson on financial crises that governments tend to wait too long underestimate the risks want to do too little. And it ultimately gets away from them and they end up spending more money causing much more damage to the economy.

I think when money starts to corrupt journalism it undermines the journalism and it undermines the credibility of the product and you end up not succeeding.

Mitt Romney understands free enterprise he has worked in it. He has seen companies succeed and he has seen them fail too. He knows what people think about when they invest their money.
