"Let me tell you what is coming. After the sacrifice of countless millions of treasure and hundreds of thousands of lives you may win Southern independence, but I doubt it. The North is determined to preserve this Union. They are not a fiery, impulsive people as you are, for they live in colder climates. But when they begin to move in a given direction, they move with the steady momentum and perseverance of a mighty avalanche." -- Governor Sam Houston, Texas, During the Civil War

"They couldn't hit an elephant at this distance." -- Union General John Sedgwick, seconds before being shot dead by a Confederate sniper at Spotsylvania.

Always get married in the morning. That way if it doesn't work out, you haven't wasted the whole day.

Mickey Rooney

GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER:
How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these.

"I wanted to do - there was this film called Magic that Anthony Hopkins did, and the director [Richard Attenborough] wanted me. The writer [William Goldman] wanted me. Joe Levine said no, I don't want any comedians in this."

"I write funny. If I can make my wife laugh, I know I'm on the right track. But yes, I don't like to get maudlin, and I have a tendency towards it."

"I'm not so funny. Gilda was funny. I'm funny on camera sometimes. In life, once in a while... once in a while, but she was funny. She spent more time worrying about being liked than anything else."

- Gene Wilder

Minds are like parachutes. They only function when they are open. Sir James Dewar, Scientist (1877-1925)


Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Mark Twain [Samuel Langhornne Clemens] (1835-1910)

On directing The Empire Strikes Back:

"I think it went beyond Star Wars. You had some humor, you got to know the characters a little better. I saw it as the second movement in an opera. That's why I wanted some of the things slower. And it ends in a way that you can't wait to see or to hear the vivace, the allegretto. I didn't have a climax at the end. I had an emotional climax."

"Of all the younger guys around, all the hot shots, why me? I remember [George Lucas] said, 'Well, because you know everything a Hollywood director is supposed to know, but you're not Hollywood.' I liked that."

- Irvin Kershner

'The world seems full of good men, even if there are monsters in it. ' - Mina Harker in Bram Stoker's Dracula

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so you can appreciate them when they go right you believe lies you eventually learn to trust no on but yourself, and sometimes things have to fall apart before they can fall together. - Marylin Monroe
