If you hang onto something long enough, it will come back in style.. Like ME.

Friends come in herds and they leave in herds. Hollywood loves an adventure, but you have to hit bottom. Then they love to save you and be a part of it. Or think they're a part of it.

We got Sally Field onboard [in Smokey and the Bandit] and it changed the entire dynamic. About a third of the way into filming, I was in the car with Sally and there was this little moment where we kind of looked at each other, and then we both turned and looked over at Hal [Needham]. He gave us a thumbs up and said, "Yeah!" And we kind of knew there was some magic going on.

Sometimes you have to lose yourself 'fore you can find anything.

I'm paying the third highest alimony and child support in the world. And the only two ahead of me are sheiks.

Having done 300 television shows and almost 60 movies, I'm tired of having guys who are younger than some sandwiches I've had, telling me to turn left at the couch. There's no appreciation of actors and no sense of history.

My acting is a bit like basketball. Most females in my films come off very well. I give great assist. And if I'm lucky, I even score.
