WE are a special breed, plus We have the Age, (years behind us.) Most people do not have 30 screenplays like us. I'm also blessed by being a Comedian. Like I always say, if you are not preaching, teaching or entertaining, (being funny,) then why are you speaking? It's because people have some fals...

Expand commentDon Rickles had a quote that I adore: ' If you take the traditional path and do the regular thing, then you will be the average person. But, if you do it your way, people may Love you or can't stand you, but you will stand out.' - I totally butchered that. That's not the quote, but it's something like that. : ) God bless (Hugs)
Okay, the actual quote is: "I've had people who were offended and I've had people who loved me. But I'll tell ya, in anything you do if you just go the ordinary line and the general approach you'll be...

But I'll tell ya, in anything you do if you just go the ordinary line and the general approach you'll be the average person. If you believe in what you do and you cause excitement you're going to get people who say I Love him or I can't stand him, but so be it." ----I was pretty close : ) ha ha. -Don Rickles

Expand commentLove your comments @Tennyson! And Penelope Richards I could NOT agree MORE! Many people in this business are terrified to take risks. That is why Dr. Seuss and Stephen King were turned down over a dozen times, but then changed the World! I just entered 2 contests and once something BIG happens everyone who turned us down, will suddenly have believed in us all along. : ) God bless (Hugs) Persistence is the key. ------------- At RMU where I went for Film we were told to talk about ourselves and when I stood up I said: "I will be a World Famous Writer/Director/Co-star," (humanitarian...) and the teacher, Dr. Helena Vanhala said THAT is the ONLY attitude that will succeed in this business. You will hear NO so many times that if you can be swayed and don't have that level of confidence you will quit. So, I will see you on Set later! : )
