My departure from Hollywood was described as a walk-out. No one understood that I was cracking up.

I admire anyone who rids himself of an addiction.

I needed to be accepted, not humored. I intended to act.

I was going to live on my salary or go down swinging.

I simply did not want my face to be my talent.

For years it never occurred to me to question the judgment of those in charge at the studio.

My parents argued more than I remembered, about money and all the little things that disguise the truth that you are still arguing about money.
