What helped me most were my failures and slumps - when I couldn't get work, people weren't interested in me or had written me off.

Revelations come when you're in the thick of it, pitting yourself up against something larger than yourself

One of the safest places to be in the world is the stage.

Where you are is where it's at.... Don't ever give up & don't ever give in.

It's my job to try to communicate with as little showiness as possible. I was a really showy actor as a young man.

I have a good friend who says, "We're all just dodging bullets." It seems to me the trick to living a good life is to try to move away from the gun you turn on yourself.

At this point in my career, I can stand shoulder to shoulder with an actor my age who has chosen to do really awful things, and he will get a job over me.
