I'm more comfortable with whatever's wrong with me than my father was whenever he felt he failed or didn't measure up to the standard he set.

Unlike my grandfather or my brother, I've actually been able to make some money at a racetrack.

When you do a really good play, the audience and the performers are looking into the same looking glass, the same microscope. And the specimen they are looking at is human life and that's why I do it, that's why I like it.

I mean, a lot of time rehearsals are taken up with other things other than preparing a character.

You can't take a play someone has directed and do whatever you want with it.

It never occurred to me to be an actor.

I don't have a great intellect, and I can't compete with people who do. I feel certain things. And all I know, and all I can do, is what I feel.
