What's been said of Roger Corman who produced more than 300 films and has directing credits on 50 titles and usually completed within 2 weeks to 30 days, and on a low budget (B movies).
"A longstanding joke in Hollywood was that Corman could negotiate the production of a film on a pay phone, finance it with the money left in the change slot and then shoot the whole film in the phone booth".

“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it--always.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

I saw it on the song posted by @Sammo

Edit: I don't agree with all the views in the song but I like the quotes.

I don't think we have to agree with everything anyone thinks or says to recognize wisdom in some of their opinions. People nowadays frequently seem to take an all or nothing stance though.

I don't agree with many of the views in it either, but stuff like the Gandhi and other liberal ones are good

"Republicans approve of the American farmer, but they are willing to help him go broke. They stand four-square for the American home–but not for housing. They are strong for labor–but they are stronger for restricting labor’s rights. They favor minimum wage–the smaller the minimum wage the better. They endorse educational opportunity for all–but they won’t spend money for teachers or for schools. They think modern medical care and hospitals are fine–for people who can afford them. They consider electrical power a great blessing–but only when the private power companies get their rake-off. They think American standard of living is a fine thing–so long as it doesn’t spread to all the people. And they admire the Government of the United States so much that they would like to buy it." - Harry S. Truman

Translation:
The government is addicted to blood
Otherwise, everything is good in the country

People in power want to divide the common man, make them fight among themselves for religion, colour, ethinicity, etc, so that they forget about the real issues.

I usually say political leaders have no ideology. Their ideology is whatever keeps them in power. The only ones who truly believe in any ideology are the followers. I was almost lynched by the political activists back when I was in school for saying that, and the least I've been called is politically blind. Anyway having the opportunity to work with politicians in my country for a time I still firmly believe in that.
