“Of all the actors and actresses I've ever worked with, the hardest worker is Fred Astaire. He behaved like he was a young man whose whole destiny depended on being successful in his first film. He rehearses between takes, after takes - there's no limit to his professionalism.”

“He measured all his fellow workers by the test of professionalism, and a professional is a man who can do his best work when he doesn't feel like it.”

“Fred Astaire once worked so hard/ he often lost his breath/ and now he taps all other chaps to death”

“As a dancer he stands alone, and no singer knows his way around a song like Fred Astaire.”

“If a man does not work passionately - even furiously - at being the best in the world at what he does, he fails his talent, his destiny, and his God.”

“For the first time in television a writer will have the opportunity to let his imagination take him where ever he wants to. The sky is no longer the limit.”

“There's a place in the world for the angry young man
With his working class ties and his radical plans
He refuses to bend he refuses to crawl
And he's always at home with his back to the wall
And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost
And struggles and bleeds as he hangs on his cross
And likes to be known as the angry young man.”

“My Dad, Fred Trump, was the smartest and hardest working man I ever knew.”

“He was a man, take him for all in all,
I shall not look upon his like again.”

“A man is whole only when he takes into account his shadow as well as himself — and what is a man's shadow but his upright astonishment?”
