Quote by John S. Bonnell

Of all the riches that we hug, of all the pleasures we enjoy, we can carry no more out of this world than out of a dream.

Of all the riches that we hug, of all the pleasures we enjoy

Summary

This quote highlights the transient nature of material possessions and worldly pleasures. It suggests that despite our attachment to material wealth and the enjoyment we derive from worldly pleasures, they hold no significance beyond this life. Similar to the fleeting nature of dreams, everything we accumulate in terms of riches and pleasures will be left behind when we depart from this world. It serves as a reminder to prioritize experiences, relationships, and intangible qualities over material possessions, as those are what truly carry meaning and can be cherished beyond the confines of reality.

Southern political personalities, like sweet corn, travel badly. They lose flavor with every hundred yards away from the patch. By the time they reach New York, they are like Golden Bantam that has been trucked up from Texas - stale and unprofitable. The consumer forgets that the corn tastes different where it grows.

Shooting this one was kind of like a two month party, we would literally play music between takes, and other movies that were shooting on our lot would play hookey, come over and hang out and stuff. We had a great time.
