I crave the indulgence of my senses but this is countered by an interior desire that is even keener than my senses to know the meaning of things

The public has always expected me to be a playboy, and a decent chap never lets his public down.

I've had a hell of a lot of fun and I've enjoyed every minute of it.

It isn't what they say about you, it's what they whisper.

By instinct I'm an adventurer; by choice I'd like to be a writer; by pure, unadulterated luck, I'm an actor.

My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.

Man's indecency to man all over the world rules out the idea of humanity as an actuality. It is a dream of young idealists. In practice a misnomer

I intend to live the first half of my life. I don't care about the rest.

You can never trust a human being to behave as you would have expected in a given circumstance

I am convinced of the validity of contradiction. There are many worlds. Each is true, at its time, in its own fashion

Any man who dies with more than $10000 to his name is a failure.

I covet truth

All that pain of craving somewhere deep inside which lies in wait for one glimpse.

I love doing both theater and television.

When I'm 60, maybe, I'll look at my pile of papers and wonder, What really happened that year?

I just like to hear that guys have the same problems that we do.

There are some things that once you've lost, you never get back. Innocence is one. Love is another. I guess childhood is a third.

How exciting is it to come to work if the best you can do is trounce some other company that does roughly the same thing?

When you become a parent, you look at your parents differently. You look at being a child differently. It's an awakening, a revelation that you have.

Just as worship begins in holy expectancy, it ends in holy obedience. If worship does not propel us into greater obedience, it has not been worship.

While my interest in natural history has added very little to my sum of achievement, it has added immeasurably to my sum of enjoyment in life.
