History Passes The Final Judgment

Far As I Can Tell, I Still Have Most Of My Hair, My Gut Is Not Hanging Over My Belt, And I Still Have All Of My Teeth.

I've Learned That I Must Find Positive Outlets For Anger Or It Will Destroy Me. There Is A Certain Anger: It Reaches Such Intensity That To Express It Fully Would Require Homicidal Rage--self Destructive, Destroy The World Rage--and Its Flame Burns Because The World Is So Unjust. I Have To Try To Find A Way To Channel That Anger To The Positive, And The Highest Positive Is Forgiveness.

I Did Not Go Into The Film Business To Be Symbolized As Someone Else's Vision Of Me.

An Appreciable Number Of Directors Have Shifted To Lower-cost Films, Allowing Them To Be Satisfied With A More Modest Return.

So I Had To Be Careful. I Recognized The Responsibility That, Whether I Liked It Or Not, I Had To Accept Whatever The Obligation Was. That Was To Behave In A Manner, To Carry Myself In Such A Professional Way, As If There Ever Is A Reflection, It's A Positive One.
