I've Done Everything I've Wanted To Do.

An Attitude Will Give You Heft.

Writing Is The Basis Of All, Because Creating Something That Didn't Even Exist Before Is Like Taking An Empty Canvass. It Is A Wonderful Thing To Make Something Out Of Nothing. You've Got An Empty Page, You've Got An Idea, And Then You Start Typing And That Is The Most Thrilling Thing Of All. And Then If It Becomes A Movie Or Something Else That's A Plus, But The Original Writing Of It Is What's Very Exciting.

I Certainly Have Warm Relationships With People, But You Choose The People You Have Those Relationships With. There Are Some People I Don't Bother With.

When I Found Out I Could Write I Was Shocked! I Didn't Know I Could Write.

I Was A Teletype Operator In The Army, So That's Where I Learned To Type. One Day, I Went Downstairs To See If I Could Still Type - I Hadn't Done It For Four Or Five Years After The War. So I Typed Out A Page And I Showed It To My Wife And She Said, "where Did You Get This?" I Said I Wrote It. "you Wrote This?" It Was Something Very Funny. I Went And Wrote Another Page, Another Couple Of Pages, And By The Time I Was Finished I Had 13 Little Short Stories, Humorous Short Stories.
