Everyone thinks acting is easy. It's far from easy, but it's the most gratifying thing I do.

Even if I don't want to slow down, I'm slowing down.

I was an original member of the Actors' Studio.

Having the critics praise you is like having the hangman say you've got a pretty neck.

Well, I go to the theater today, and its curtain - there is no curtain in this play; the lights go down and go up - and we start. And I live this character for two hours. There are only two of us in the play. And It's a complete experience.

I always end up being the evil one, and I wouldn't hurt a fly.

I never dreamed I would do Westerns.
