men hands tyrants
So that this nation may long endure, I urge you to follow in the hallowed footsteps of the great disobedience of history that freed exiles, founded religions, defeated tyrants, and yes, in the hands of an aroused rabble in arms and a few great men
rose baths hollywood
Doing a picture with Willie Wyler is like getting the works at a Turkish bath. You damn near drown, but you come out smelling like a rose.
artist pals stuff
And their pals vote for their stuff when they're not on the panel, and it just keeps going that way. And they tend to be very fringe artists, so anything before the 20th century is not worth considering. This is out of date.
art example film
Undeniably the American art form, too. And yet more and more, we see films made that diminish the American experience and example. And sometimes trash it completely.
loss actors audience
For an actor, there is no greater loss than the loss of his audience.
believe men heroic-deeds
I have played some of the great men in history and I believe in the great man who does heroic deeds, even in these egalitarian times.
love unique snow
Skijoring is just something that people want to see, it's like Ben Hur on snow, the modern way. I love the speed, the adrenalin rush is something special. It's just unique.

You could think of extraordinary examples to the contrary: The Grapes of Wrath... and even into the 70s.
art government views
Well, we have certainly produced great art before we did this. In my view, there are any number of areas of government which tax money should not be spent.
given minutes feels
The minute you feel you have given a faultless performance is the time to get out.
tragedy comedy wells
Society mends its wounds. And that's invariably true in all the tragedies, in the comedies as well. And certainly in the histories.
believe theory audience
I always work on the theory that the audience will believe you best if you believe yourself.
