Interview (2003).
Kontext: I am quite surprised, that with all my work, and some of it is very, very good, that nobody talks about The Miracle Worker. We're talking about Mrs. Robinson. I understand the world... I'm just a little dismayed that people aren't beyond it yet.
“He understands not only with his brain but with his heart.”

On successful marriage. Associated Press interview (1997).
Kontext: First of all, you have to marry the right person.

So I think you have to marry for the right reasons, and marry the right person.
