My kid was a great baseball player. I thought I had it made. Front-row seats at Yankee Stadium. Then he turned sixteen and wanted to be a rapper.

People say, 'Gee, you do a lot of mafia movies.' I think I've done two, out of 60.

I've never been difficult to anybody or with anybody on a picture. Especially when you're in that nice status of hierarchy of actors and actresses who get to approve directors. Because once you make that choice, it's my belief that the director's boss.

I went to a shrink once, but I caught him going to a fortune-teller so I quit.

I'll see a beautiful girl walking up to me and I'll think, Oh, my God, I can't believe my good luck. But then she'll say, 'Where's your son?' or 'My mother loves you'.

I never did anything else. In college I switched majors every two weeks, and acting was the only thing that held my interest.

People are always backing up when I'm just going to shake their hands.
