I should like to make films that are not lowering to the spirit. A new building can be very harrowing, I should like to give people a chance to whistle.
A courteous, yet harrowing Grace, As Guest, that would be gone
You are my country, Desdemona. . . . My Egypt. My hot, harrowing desert and my cool, verdant Nile, infinitely lovely and unfathomable and sustaining.
Secret of life is to go through something harrowing that doesnt kill you. . . and to love one woman for the rest of your life.
