“We are born alone, we live alone, and we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion that for the moment we are not alone.” I suppose I was right. Because there I am—most certainly dead and clearly alone. The irony isn’t lost on me. I can assure you of that. Yet there is also something else important I want you to take away. I made my living as an actor and film director. My career was built on creating illusions for others and myself.”
Josh Karp, Orson Welles's Last Movie: The Making of The Other Side of the Wind

“Thus the movie would be a mixture of Hannaford’s smooth, elegantly filmed picture and the raw, quick-cut, cinema verité footage from the birthday party.”
Josh Karp, Orson Welles's Last Movie: The Making of The Other Side of the Wind

“having come to realize that clients were like mad emperors with the agency at their eternal whim.”
Josh Karp, A Futile and Stupid Gesture: How Doug Kenney and National Lampoon Changed Comedy Forever
