Orson Welles
Image
I'd make my promises now if I wasn't so busy arranging to keep them.
Orson Welles
Image
Almost all serious stories in the world are stories of failure with a death in it. But there is more lost paradise in them than defeat.
Orson Welles

Fake is as old as the Eden tree.
Orson Welles
Image
I'm not basically a happy person, but I have all kinds of joy.
Orson Welles
