Wally Amos is the classic example of a man who gets up again and again.
I like a lot of classic movies, like, for example, 'Citizen Kane', James Dean movies, etc, etc.
One of the regrets of my life is that I did not study Latin. I'm absolutely convinced, the more I understand these eighteenth century people, that it was that grounding in Greek and Latin that gave them their sense of the classic virtues: the classic...
This I regard as a classic example of my not being properly prepared for a part I very much wanted.
