I was born in an elevator, and - as my mother said - naturally it was going down. She said, "All I remember is telling your father, 'That's it! Never again!'" That's why I'm an only child.

I would rather play Hamlet with no rehearsal than TV golf.

I'd rather make the cut in the Crosby than win another Oscar.

If you've been fortunate enough to live out your dream in the profession of your choice, then you have an obligation to send the elevator back down.

Stay humble. Always answer your phone - no matter who else is in the car.

I won't quit until I get run over by a truck, a producer or a critic.

Everything that is truly worthwhile - I think passion is involved in your approach to it. No matter what it is.
