Ruth Gordon: I Keep Moving

Interview with Ruth Gordon

Conducted by James Grissom

1984

I'm okay with dissatisfaction, because I look on it as a sign that I'm done with something: It's time to move on. Life is movement, you know? There is no arriving at a place or a time and then you're done, unless you're dead or really stupid or lazy. You keep moving. I'm gonna keep moving. I have things to do. I can only be satisfied with something for the short time that I acknowledge that I did my best and it gave me some knowledge or perspective or pleasure or warning. And then I'm done. I keep moving.
