All human souls, never so bedarkened, love light; light once kindled spreads till all is luminous.
TV's hard work. I don't know how the hell Angela Lansbury survived doing 'Murder, She Wrote' all those years.
I have worried about getting pigeon-holed, but now I think I've done enough weird, offbeat stuff not to be. And I also know that I do things for the right reasons: I've made my money, so I don't have to say yes to anything.
