“The only thing that does change, to some degree, is [that] you have some life experiences, you suffer a certain amount and you incorporate that into your work. Not in the content of your work, but in the sensibility of your work. It's nothing that you try and do; it just happens. And if you're lucky, people buy tickets to see it, and if you're not lucky, [then] they don't like it.

Because they are frightened of being lonely, or they have children.” PeopleIfsChildrenPainTogetherSufferingEnergyDifficultLuckyDegreesLonelyPreparedFrightenedBe PreparedInertiaBeing LonelyLucky You Author:Woody Allen
