The Problem With Me Is, I Guess,

I Used To Think Of Myself As A Comedian. I've Always Admired Comedians. Their Minds, The Way In Which They Se The World Is So Striking, The Way They Juxtapose Things, The Way They Can See Humor In People. There's A Liberation In That.

I Haven't Encouraged [julia Marie Pacino] Or Discouraged Her. I Let Her Go Her Own Way. I Did Say To Her That I Thought That She Had A Real Gift, And It's A Good Idea To Know That. It's Always Good To Go With Your Gift.

The Interesting Thing About This Is I Don't Know What My Vision [ In Salome The Play And Salomaybe] Is Yet About. I'm Sensing Something And I'm Going Along With It. It Reminds Me Of A Painting, The Way Jackson Pollack Painted - Jackson Pollack, The Great, Great Artist.

The Thing Is Doing It, That's What It's All About. Not In The Results Of It. After All What Is A Risk? It's A Risk Not To Take Risks. Otherwise, You Can Go Stale And Repeat Yourself. I Don't Feel Like A Person Who Takes Risks. Yet There's Something Within Me That Must Provoke Controversy Because I Find It Wherever I Go. Anybody Who Cares About What He Does Takes Risks.

That's The Way To Live - Around People Who Care. It May Be A Tough Ride, But Something Is Going To Come Out Of It.
