I always choose to do the thing that scares me.

I'd always felt a man should marry later in life.

I now want to be playing parts more interesting to me and more exciting to me.

Then, for a hot three or four weeks I wanted to be a concert pianist.

My last kids were born when I was in my forties, so I still had little kids around me, which gave me the illusion of feeling younger.

There is a thing called the death wish, a literal thing. It doesn't mean you want to die. It just means however we're built, as we get into these years, some inner part of you does begin to accept the fact that you're heading towards the end, and there's a peace that comes with that.

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.
