It ends: "Anything you dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, magic and power in it. Begin it now!". — John Robins

I thought as much. Miss Murray, though I am a beast, do not think that I am stupid. I know that I am hideous and hateful. I am not loved, nor ever hope to be.

["Where the Buffalo Roam" is] horrible pile of crap. [Bill] Murray did a good job. But it was a bad script. You can't beat a bad script. It was just a horrible movie. A cartoon.

I don't know if you hear this often but I would say The Razor's Edge (loosely based on a great W. Somerset Maugham novel).
