"We never better enjoy ourselves than when we most enjoy God."

-- Benjamin Whichcote

“Though everything else may appear shallow and repulsive, even the smallest task in music is so absorbing, and carries us so far away from town, country, earth, and all worldly things, that it is truly a blessed gift of God.”
“We suppose that could be considered a hedged position for the awards committee, one that would never occur in the hard sciences such as physics and chemistry, where a prize shared among three with divergent views would be an embarrassing mistake or a bad joke. While a Nobel Prize might well be the culmination of a lifeâ€™s work, shouldnâ€™t the work accurately describe the real world?”
“I used to sing songs from musicals all the time as a kid.”
“There's ways to amuse yourself while doing things and thats how I look at efficency.”
“There wouldn't be a Halle Berry or an Angela Bassett or a Cicely Tyson if there hadn't been a Lena Horne.”
“We will not return No one must leave here and so carry to the world, together with the sign impressed on his skin, the evil tidings of what man's presumption made of man in Auschwitz”
“Films are artifice. We're telling stories on film. At the same time, when it works, there is a real tough immediacy and spontaneity to it, and a punch.”
“The thing about making a documentary in Las Vegas is there isn't much to film apart from other people making documentaries about Las Vegas.”
