I firmly believe that if you follow a path that interests you, not to the exclusion of love, sensitivity, and cooperation with others, but with the strength of conviction that you can move others by your own efforts, and do not make success or failure the criteria by which you live, the chances are you'll be a person worthy of your own respect. I felt like writing about a time when I was probably, and I think all of us are, the happiest in our lives-before the obligations start in. Everyone thinks they can write a play; you just write down what happened to you. But the art of it is drawing from all the moments of your life. |
