That's what a writer does; they make things up and that makes for good reading.

I don't give parties, and I'm not in that social scene. I couldn't care less.

When I was doing theater in the 1950's, 60's and 70's we weren't allowed to film any of the shows that I did, it was against union rules. It was a stupid law, because so much is lost. We now have no record of these famous stage plays, so it turned out to be very narrow-minded thinking.

I think that the working hours and star pressures pushed a lot of people into drugs in those days. And there seemed to have been a lot of alcoholism.

The only way you learn is by failure.

I do a lot of things wrong. I lose my temper, and I hate waiting in line, but do I take drugs? No.

As you train and as you develop your talents, you do get better, hopefully, or you get out of the business.
