Being an actor is the loneliest thing in the world. You are all alone with your concentration and imagination, and that's all you have.

I'm not going to go through life with one arm tied behind my back.

I also became close to nature, and am now able to appreciate the beauty with which this world is endowed.

An actor must interpret life, and in order to do so must be willing to accept all the experiences life has to offer. In fact, he must seek out more of life than life puts at his feet. In the short span of his lifetime, an actor must learn all there is to know, experience all there is to experience, or approach that state as closely as possible. He must be superhuman in his efforts to store away in the core of his subconscious everything that he might be called upon to use in the expression of his art.

I want to be a Texan 24 hours a day.

The only greatness for man is immortality.

What better way to die? It's fast and clean and you go out in a blaze of glory!
