I have learned that you can communicate on a very deep level with any living form. Thats why my gardens bloom and my animals are so healthy-because I communicate with them.

Every decorative piece in this house is my feeling, my choice.

My kids are pretty secure, bright, and know who they are.

Id like to be a lion... they are very family-oriented. Unfortunately. too many wild animals are afraid at what man can do to them.

I am from Brooklyn, NY, so we could not have many pets, but I always had at least two dogs.

I love the live performances and Las Vegas. I also like making films that are being discovered by another generation. Having been a teen idol of the '60s is great because you realize you left your generation with a smile and good memories.

It's important for us to latch onto the people that we love.
