It's better to have a million small religions with each one containing a great truth. Than one great religion containing a million small truths.
We should bloom like a flower without reservation or restriction, but with all our energy, power, and great love for this world.

Although I was not aware of it at the time, the experience of growing up during the Great Depression was to have a profound impact on my intellectual and professional career.
I've grown tremendously as an actor by being there. It is comic writing the likes of which I don't know that I'll ever see again and it's been a great, great experience.
I love food. I'm not a great cook, but I love to cook, and I like how different it is from writing.
