Charlton Heston quotes about
believe men heroic-deeds
I have played some of the great men in history and I believe in the great man who does heroic deeds, even in these egalitarian times.
love unique snow
Skijoring is just something that people want to see, it's like Ben Hur on snow, the modern way. I love the speed, the adrenalin rush is something special. It's just unique.
country war believe
I believe that we are again engaged in a great civil war, a cultural way that's about to hijack your birthright to think and say what resides in your heart. I fear you no longer trust the pulsing lifeblood of liberty inside you... the stuff that made this country rise from wilderness into the miracle that it is.
men thinking artist
I used to think if it wasn't possible to be a family man and a totally dedicated artist, I'd rather be the former. I'm an idealist and a romantic.
thinking wrath example
You could think of extraordinary examples to the contrary: The Grapes of Wrath... and even into the 70s.
art government views
Well, we have certainly produced great art before we did this. In my view, there are any number of areas of government which tax money should not be spent.
given minutes feels
The minute you feel you have given a faultless performance is the time to get out.
tragedy comedy wells
Society mends its wounds. And that's invariably true in all the tragedies, in the comedies as well. And certainly in the histories.
believe theory audience
I always work on the theory that the audience will believe you best if you believe yourself.
hands looks noses
It's the camel's nose in the tent. Look at Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Mao Zedong, Pol Pot, Idi Amin--every one of these monsters, on seizing power, their first act was to confiscate all firearms in private hands...
thinking population world
In what I think is the most serious problem the world faces, which is the population explosion, we will come I think to a time when measures that are not even dreamt of now will become necessary.
giving-up giving tenacity
I'm neither giving up nor giving in.
silly evil catholic
Clergymen tend to be unreliable and pompous figures. Seldom Jewish rabbis, less often Catholic priests, but Protestant ministers tend to be... not really very admirable. Not necessarily evil, but silly. And wrong, of course.
lonely people internet
The Internet is for lonely people. People should live.
