You're never too old to be crazy.

To disappear your complete self into a character is quite difficult. I've tried it 85 times, and I've succeeded two or three times.

I'm not a betting man, and even if I was, I certainly wouldn't bet on this! I would not bet on the Best Actor.

I've never taken drugs - if you take a drug of your choice, you get some ecstatic feeling.

You cannot have one bathroom. And it don't matter how much you love your wife and everything, 'cause you wind up with no room at all. You just get a little corner and you've got a toothbrush and your paste and a shaving brush and a razor. And you can never get in there. So you must have two bathrooms. You really must. I think it's essential.

My view is that you should always remake failures because then you've got nowhere to go but up.

If you really want to become an actor, but only providing that acting doesn't interfere with your golf game, political ambitions and your life, you don't want to become an actor. Not only is acting more than a part time job, it's more than a full time job. It's a full time obsession.
