I know I'm not much on face value, but when it comes to stage value, I'll deliver for you.

I had the advantage of reading the book, and when the script was first submitted to me, it was just another gangster story - the east side taking over the west side and all that.

Nothing human is foreign to us

I have not collected art. Art collected me. I never found paintings. They found me. I have never even owned a work of art. They owned me.

I know I'm not much on face value, but when it comes to stage value, I'll deliver for you.

I remember just before going onto the soundstage, I'd look in my dressing room mirror and stretch myself to my full 5'5" or 5'6 whatever it was-to make me appear taller and to make me able to dominate all the others and to mow them down with my size.

The sitting around on the set is awful. But I always figure that’s what they pay me for. The acting I do for free.
