I Never Hid Out. I

The First Time With Artistic Endeavors Is, If It's Working, It Was Your Idea, And If It's Not, It's Somebody Else's Idea.

If They Want To Come Out And Watch Me Paint Or Dig Potatoes Or Mend Fences, I Don't Care. I Don't Do Interviews Not Because I Have Anything To Hide, But When You Retire, The Word Has A Meaning To Me. It's A Place In Life, A Part Of The Journey. You Just Don't Quit Work. You Develop An Attitude Where You Can Do What You Please.

I Never Fixed A Story. I Didn't Make Judgments, I Let The Listener Make Judgments. When I Got To The End Of The Story, If It Had A Moral, I Let The Listener Find It.

People Think Because You're Private, You Have Something You Don't Want Them To Know.

God Bless Little Children While They're Still Too Young To Hate.
