A good day's writing, when I turn off my computer after I know that I've written okay, or as well as I can write, that's a day well spent.

I'd been on all the television programs as an actor, as a writer, as a director, as a producer.

The definition of genius, really, should be that that person can do what the rest of us have to learn how to do.

I became a professional actor in Detroit and I was able to earn some money. It was a good job because it permitted me to study. It fit perfectly with school.

Always accepting the greatest joy of all is the time that I get to spend with my wife.

I became an actor by accident, not by design.

I jumped horses over big dangerous fences in competition. And got very, very good at it, at quite a high level. And I realized long since that, yeah, it's the same thing that appeals to me about it. You can't think about anything else, in either case; jumping horses in competition, show jumping, or flying an airplane, for whatever purpose.
