I was looked at as weird, odd, not fitting in with the Hollywood crowd.

People are hungry for messages of hope and life. What are you broadcasting?

Do not trust the person of spite; though you have loved and tamed them, the snake will bite.

Now we have lit a candle to the power Of atoms; now we know we're heirs of light Itself.

You can't put something together again unless you've torn it apart first.

Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
