I never did like the idea of sitting on newspapers. I did it once, and all the headlines came off on my white pants. On the level! It actually happened. Nobody bought a paper that day. They just followed me around over town and read the news on the seat of my pants.

The only reason they come to see me is that I know that life is great - and they know I know it.

Single men never have any problems. I suppose that the public builds some kind of idea from what they've seen of me on the screen.

The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds, and sometimes he needs somebody, his pal or his mother or his wife or God, to give him that confidence.

When it's over it's over. No questions, no tears, no farewell kisses.

I don't want a lot of strangers looking down at my wrinkles and my big fat belly when I'm dead.

Every picture I make, every experience of my private life, every lesson I learn are the keys to my future. And I have faith in it.
