Acting is ephemeral. You can't hang it on a wall. You can't throw it off. And you can't bring it out of a closet. It's there one night and it's gone the next, at least with stage acting anyhow.

I never turned down anything and never argued with any producer or director.

I'd like to have a decade of my life back. I dropped into a void for almost a decade.

I would rather do a play because it's instantaneous. You go on the stage, and you know whether it's happening or not. Somebody asked me 'What is acting?' And I said, 'Acting is listening.' And if you ain't listening, nobody's listening.

I can't count how many of my friends are in the cemetery at Normandy, the heroes are still there, the real heroes.

You make the money in movies and TV so you can do theater. I do a play a year... somewhere.

Dancing came easy for me. Acting came hard.
