My daughter used to sit and watch Murder, She Wrote. I tried to watch with her, but I fell asleep.

Unfortunately, because the theater is always a poor relation when it comes to making the nut, it's not easy to get the audience in to see a play, unless you have a name that is recognizable, that the audience wants to see and is prepared to pay the $125 to see.

It's better not to try to learn all the lines by rote. It's a very bad idea, in fact. You have to do it by using the process, and as I say, the process is to learn during rehearsals, and that's how you'll do it.

Believe me, it jabs you. When you're on the side of buses and New York loves you, you love to go out there every night. It's like a race. Curtain opens, out you go, and New York is yours.

I've worked with the greatest actors, and they're all gone. This is what's so desperate to me.

We all have levels of performance.

I made about 56 movies, I think. Not that many.
