“I am often asked why I nearly always select old material, fairy tales and legends for my stage works. I do not look upon them as old, but rather as valid material. The time element disappears, and only the spiritual power remains. My entire interest is in the expression of spiritual realities. I write for the theater in order to convey a spiritual attitude.”
Carl Orff
“I have always heard an old wives' tale that whatever you are doing on New Year's Day is what you will be doing for the rest of the year. Wow! We could be winning money all year!”
Danielle Patterson

“The movie is really a fairy tale about the guys who wrote fairy tales. It's also an excuse for Terry to create an entire world, which is what he does so well. He has his wide-angle lenses and extravagant production design. His frames are so densely packed with information. He directs like no one else.”
Matt Damon
