I have no problem with my age. I've been acting for 50 years in Australia and everyone knows my age because I started at 15. So there was never any point in lying about it.

It's one of the functions of the theater to shock and titillate and appall, apart from entertain and delight.

I love getting presents. And awards. I'd do whatever they told me to do.

I don't play many characters like myself. Oh I don't know what I am!

I'm good at not laughing. It's not that I don't want to. I'm too old and experienced.

I've always said about awards that they're meaningless until you win one, and then they're best thing in the world. The other thing about awards is that they engender respect from areas where it might never have come from without it.

The libel laws in Australia are a lot tougher than they are in America.
