Friedrich Schiller

Disappointments are to the soul what a thunderstorm is to the air.

Dare to err and to dream. Deep meaning often lies in childish plays.

Who dares nothing, need hope for nothing.

I was a pretty good imitator of Roy Acuff, but then I found out they already had a Roy Acuff, so I started singin' like myself.

I loved Judy Garland. I thought she was such a classic beauty. I thought she was so endearing and charming, and I loved her voice. She was such a dreamer, and I think I was, too - and I am.

I make movies for me and posterity. I'm more scared of history than I am of the studio.
