Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way.

I set out alone, swayed by an overmastering impulse within me.

I don't believe in playing down to children, either in life or in motion pictures. I didn't treat my own youngsters like fragile flowers, and I think no parent should.

The trouble with being punctual is that nobodys there to appreciate it.

Out of the crooked timber of humanity, nothing completely straight was ever made.

I hold it to be the inalienable right of anybody to go to hell in his own way.
