Good evening, and welcome to a private showing of three paintings, displayed here for the first time. Each is a collectors' item in its own way - not because of any special artistic quality, but because each captures on a canvas, and suspends in time and space, a frozen moment of a nightmare.

I'd love to be able to write an in-depth piece of what causes men like [Richard] Nixon and [H.R.]Haldeman and [John] Ehrlichman and all the rest of them not only to run, but what causes us to vote for them.

The Chancellor, the late Chancellor, was only partly correct, he was obsolete. But so was the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of man, that state is obsolete. A case to be filed under 'M' for mankind... in the Twilight Zone.

Fantasy is the impossible made probable. Science Fiction is the improbable made possible.

You can become much more independent, much more courageous with a bank account. And also, much more independent and self-reliant when you know you have money behind you.
Rod Serling
Image
The tendency when you dictate is to overwrite, because you're not counting pages, you don't really know what the hell the page count is.

I think I would like to be in Victorian times. Small town. Bandstands. Summer. That kind of thing. Without disease.

If you want to prove that God is not dead, first prove that man is alive.
