I have a lot of repression. So repression is what I make movies about.

When I was a little boy I used to borrow my father's hat and make a press card to stick in the hat band. That was the way reporters were always portrayed in the movies.

In the morning he was lying dead on one of the beds fully clothed. He was dead. I got the impression he wanted to go and I must have killed him. I can't remember strangling him. I just sat there shocked.

It's not like I just have to go to Washington and go to the White House everyday and go to the same press conference at 10 in the morning and then be briefed at 4 in the afternoon and then get a story on at 6.

The school-boy doesn't force himself to learn his vocabularies and rules altogether at night but knows that be must impress them again in the morning.

My host at Richmond yesterday morning could not sufficiently express his surprise that I intended to venture to walk as far as Oxford and still farther. He however was so kind as to send his son a clever little boy to show me the road leading to Windsor.

And at ten or whatever time in the morning we had the press conference what we knew is there had been an incident at Three Mile Island that it was shut down that there was water that had escaped but it was contained.

I was scheduled to give my first official press conference that morning anyway 'cause I was chairman of the Governors Energy Council and I was making a press conference with regard to energy policy.

Another very strong image from the first day was giving my initial press conference in the morning - going down and finding out that everything I had said the essence of what I had said was wrong.

Whereas I used to get depressed or neurotic or dwell on things I see my son's bright eyes and smile in the morning and suddenly I don't feel like I'm depressed anymore. There's nothing to be depressed about when you've got that.
