Ford Coppola

Famous quotes containing the words ford coppola, ford and/or coppola:

    All this stuff you heard about America not wanting to fight, wanting to stay out of the war, is a lot of horse dung. Americans, traditionally, love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle.... Americans play to win all the time. I wouldn’t give a hoot in hell for a man who lost and laughed. That’s why Americans have never lost—and will never lose—a war, because the very thought of losing is hateful to Americans.
    —Francis Ford Coppola (b. 1939)

    There is a lady sweet and kind,
    Was never face so pleased my mind;
    I did but see her passing by,
    And yet I love her till I die.
    —Thomas Ford (1580–1648)

    Nothing else in the world smells like that.... I love the smell of napalm in the morning.... It smells like victory.
    —Francis Ford Coppola (b. 1939)
