Know or listen to those who know.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Only the educated are free.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Who seeks shall find.
If you think you can do it, you can.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
With Hitchcock I had little relationship. I was called to replace Bernard Herrmann, his favorite composer, in Torn Curtain, after the bitter fight between them.
