Jerry Goldsmith - biography

“I like the variety.  But basically my choice of films is a small intimate film.  Quiet film, no action, just people in relationships.  That’s what I like the most.”

“If our music survives, which I have no doubt it will, then it will because it is good.”

“I’ve been using the Mac solely for years, and got very comfortable with it.”

“My wife has them all in a vault...  a copy of every album.”
