Some of the greatest things, as I understand, they have come about by serendipity, the greatest discoveries.

The greatest things are accomplished by individual people, not by committees or companies.

Sincerity and the correct use of the voice are the greatest things in the art of acting.

The very greatest things - great thoughts, discoveries, inventions - have usually been nurtured in hardship, often pondered over in sorrow, and at length established with difficulty.

I never thought about my image. It interests me that there are people who do, that they seem to be methodical about it. Maybe things would have gone differently for me in some ways if I had.

But one of the things I learned from improvising is that all of life is an improvisation, whether you like it or not. Some of the greatest scientific discoveries of the 20th century came out of people dropping things.
