Quotable Quotes:

"Every problem has a gift for you in its hands."

"We are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out."

"[in "Halliwell's Filmgoers and Video Viewers Companion", on producing movie trailers for Roger Corman] We did all kinds of things in trailers to help sell films. We had a famous exploding helicopter shot from one of those Filipino productions that we had cut in every time a trailer was too dull because that was always exciting." (IMDB)
