Acting is still of course what I love to do most. The beauty of it is that by changing characters it never gets boring.

We say we want to create beauty identity quality singularity. And yet maybe in truth these cities that we have are desired. Maybe their very characterlessness provides the best context for living.

Every article on these islands has an almost personal character which gives this simple life where all art is unknown something of the artistic beauty of medieval life.

My theory of characterization is basically this: Put some dirt on a hero and put some sunshine on the villain one brush stroke of beauty on the villain.

As Ralph's character begins to discover the political thriller aspect of the film he falls deeper in love with his wife so the two run together. That's the beauty of this film. It has fast pace and excitement but it also has heart and soul.

The characteristic political attitude of today is not one of positive belief but of despair.

The attitude of insolent haughtiness is characteristic of the relationships Americans form with what is alien to them with others.

Character is the result of two things: mental attitude and the way we spend our time.

Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character.

An art whose medium is language will always show a high degree of critical creativeness for speech is itself a critique of life: it names it characterizes it passes judgment in that it creates.
