Good acting is all in the writing. If it isn't on the page, then it really won't make any difference. You cannot act on force of personality alone.

There are very little things in this life I cannot afford and patience is one of them.

I liked Dallas better because it was more deceptive, you could do more with it.

It always annoys me when stars grumble about fans coming up to them in the street. I love it. These young stars today with all their airs and graces, they need to remember it is an honour and a privilege to make money from acting. How hard is it?

Before I tried LSD, I'd been going to a psychologist for a couple of years. I found out about success that you have to fight for it a lot, then when you achieve it, you can't give up the fight.

I was born with success. Lucky for me I am able to handle it. Also, I damn well deserve it!

I think that everybody in the world, whatever colour or creed, has a jerk like JR in his or her family somewhere. Whether it is a father, uncle, cousin or brother, everybody can identify with JR and that certainly had something to do with the success of 'Dallas.'
