After The Advent Of The Written Word,

I Am Filled With Awe That Filmmakers Have The Capacity To Stir Us And Give Us Back A Sense Of Wonder.

Must We Be Put To Shame By Much Smaller And Poorer Countries, By Ireland, France, Austria Or Sweden, Who Have Understood That A Nation's Support Of Its Arts Is A Matter Of Both National Pride And Cultural Survival?

You Can't Expect The Entire World To Come To New York To See You. You Have To Travel To Them.

Despite A Large Body Of Work In Films, Tv, Theatre And Concerts, I Am Viewed By Many As A Jewish Artist. I Do Not Resent The Label, Except For The Fact That I Disapprove Of Labels In General.

You Cannot Please All Of The People All Of The Time, And That Is Truer In The Arts Than Anywhere Else.
