I regard myself as someone who is retired but who occasionally goes out to work. In fact, I'm offered so much good stuff that it's not so occasional.

I admired Marlon Brando as I grew up. I though he was one of the finest screen actors around.

The old guys like me started in the theatre. I was in the theatre for nine years.

I don't think you retire from movies; movies retire you.

I had been in that part of the world as a soldier in Korea, so I had been interested in Vietnam.

To be a movie star, you have to carry a movie. And to carry a movie where you play the title role is the supreme example.

I had been nine years in the theatre and hadn't had massive success. My only thing was I wanted to be an actor and I didn't care when, where, or how much for.
