Just the other day, my assistant was on the line with Calvin Klein. Golly, I usually shop at Sears.

The ones that work out really and ones that become something to the audience, those are the most important people.

When I was coming up, if you were on a TV show, that meant something was wrong with your career. Now it means something's right with your career.

These days and times you can't do eclectic records. In the '60s you could, but not anymore.

Every character I play is me, always has been.

I figured I would have to tell someone to kiss my ass before it was all over, and I have -- twice.

Anytime you get a chance to play some extreme character, in any direction, it's always a great blessing.
