It is all about marketing; that is where the real craft comes in. The best actors do not necessarily become the biggest stars. And vice versa.

Hollywood... a city I was to come back to time and again, in sickness and in health, in success and in failure, with anticipation and with dread.

I have written two nonfiction books, I'm embarrassed to say.

I believe that the first 8 years are most important and the time in a child's life when parents must be absolutely and completely present.

I loved sitting on my veranda sipping quality scotch, puffing a Cuban cigar and watching Cuba on the horizon, or the oceanic vista. Did this late in the evenings many times.

I wanted to be Anthony Hopkins and ended up being neither a film star nor having a career on the stage.

Time is money, as they say, and it was never more apropos than on a television show, where a minute is worth about $200!
