Deeds Rather Than Words (1963)
Context: I have long felt that the way to keep children out of trouble is to keep them interested in things. Lecturing to children is no answer to delinquency. Preaching won't keep youngsters out of trouble, but keeping their minds occupied will.
“Things keep changing and things keep happening. I never really run out of ideas. I guess as long as I'm interested, I'll be interesting.”
