Luck, bad if not good, will always be with us. But it has a way of favoring the intelligent and showing its back to the stupid.
I got good notice from that show, and on the last day of filming Townies, Twentieth Century Fox called wanting to meet with me about a development deal.
It's always good to show that poetry isn't the little depressed lyric people believe it to be, that it's something bigger.
Good leadership consists of showing average people how to do the work of superior people.
I'm really proud of Gunsmoke. We put on a good show every week - one that families could all watch together without offending anyone.
There is no sin coveting things are of no great use or profit, but would show out good and have some grandeur around them.
They can certainly expect to be very impressed with the technical aspects of the show, fooled and led up the garden path by the story and ultimately have a jolly good laugh!
