I think all phases of one's career are serious if you take it seriously no matter if you are doing high profile dramatic pieces or not.

People are like music, some speak the truth and others are just noise.

The truth is, anybody that becomes famous is an ass for a year and a half. You've got to give them a year and a half, two years. They are getting so much smoke blown, and their whole world gets so turned upside down, their responses become distorted. I give everybody a year or two to pull it together because, when it first happens, I know how it is.

If I run into someone on the street, that's one thing. But answering mail for a living? I like a job where you can play and act kind of goofy and have some fun.

I've retired a couple of times. It's great, because you can just say, 'Oh, I'm sorry. I'm retired.'

The government can destroy wealth but it cannot create wealth, which is the product of labor and management working with creation.

Alcohol is really just the liquid version of Photoshop.
