My mother and father told me I was god. I was a good Italian boy who hung out with the same four guys. I was a little god.

The way I pick movies is, first, if the script is any good. Then, if the script is good, who else is in it, the director, the producer, all that. If you have all that, there's a chance the movie will be great. If the script isn't right, or the director or cast isn't right, you've got no shot in hell.

I came here knowing nobody. I worked clubs as a singer and even the doors a few times before I landed some TV roles.

The saddest thing in life is wasted talent, and the choices you make will shape your life forever.

My father always said, 'The saddest thing in life is wasted talent.'

Italian-Americans are not the Mafia.

Yeah, I like to gamble.
