Nobody Would Watch Lifestyles Of The Poor

I'm Disappointed In Television. I'm Disappointed First Of All In The Audience That Will Not Let Stories Be Told In Longer Form.

It's The People Who Work Hard And Earn Big That Keep The Machine Tipping For Everybody Else. If Everybody Else Was Equal Down The Bottom Rung Of A Ladder, Nobody Would Be On The Ladder At All Because It Would Break And Everybody Would Fall Off Backwards. So You Need People At The Top To Help Pull Those People Up From The Bottom. You Can't Take That And Swing To The Right. You Can't Have Everybody Living In The Same Ordinary $60,000 House Because You May As Well Live In Russia, Bulgaria Or Some Other Eastern Block Communist Nation.

It's The Reason Why So Many People Left Britain Like I Did In The Mid 60s Because Britain Was Exactly The Same Then As America Is Today, Getting Ready To Redistribute Social Wealth And It Didn't Work. You've Seen That In Places Like Greece, Portugal, Iceland, Ireland Where The Entire Country's Business Has Collapsed, Gone Bankrupt. That's Where America Is Heading.

I Would Never Go Back To Doing The Show Again. I Mean, Every Day I Think About Lifestyles Because Somebody Comes Up To Me And Tells Me How Much They Love The Show And I Should Bring It Back, But This Is Not The Time To Bring It Back. I Don't Think It Would Be As Successful Today As It Once Was.

They Say That Art Comes From The Soul. The More Drama In An Artist's Life, The More He Can Draw On For His Art. Van Gogh And Picasso Had Troubled Souls, But Poor Steve Kaufman Has Been Shot Once, Stabbed 3 Times - All By Women. That Is A Lot Of Drama For Great Art.
