Our greatest weakness lies in giving up.
There is some joy in weeping. For our tears Fill up the cup, then wash our pain away.
Bear and endure: This sorrow will one day prove to be for your good.
Nothing is stronger than habit.
What is without periods of rest will not endure.
The glow of inspiration warms us; it is a holy rapture.
In our play we reveal what kind of people we are.
ANTI-ZIONISTS, last of all, exhibit a distaste for certain words. It was Thomas Hobbes who, anticipating semantics, pointed out that words are counters, not coins; that the wise man looks through them to reality. This counsel many anti-Zionists seem to have neglected. They are especially disturbed by the two nouns nationalism and commonwealth, and by the adjective political. And yet these terms on examination are not at all upsetting.
Sometimes you go against what they say because you believe in it anyway.
At MGM there was a script cage in the basement where they'd show rushes. And I thought to myself, "How do I get into the script cage and find out what my future is?"I climbed into the script cage one night and spent the whole night in there. I saw the bowels of MGM. I saw the studio scripts that the producers had seen; the writers had just handed them in. And I started thinking this is a chance to pick my own roles.
I fix what's broken - except in the heart.
