Truman Capote
You can do films for the fun of it, or the thrill of it, but certain films you can't do unless there's something driving you, something you have a passion for that will pull you through.
Truman Capote
My major regret in life is that my childhood was unnecessarily lonely.
Truman Capote
That's all a writer has to write about - what he sees and hears and what not.
Truman Capote
Reading dreams. That's what started her walking down the road. Every day she'd walk a little further: a mile, and come home. Two miles, and come home. One day she just kept on.
