I just try to play more and more difficult roles.

My wife, my daughters, even my grandchildren are funny. You've got to keep a sense of humor because anger destroys you.

Movie acting is about covering the machinery. Stage acting is about exposing the machinery. In cinema, you should think the actor is playing himself, if he's that good. It looks very easy. It should. But it's not, I assure you.

I want to stick around with the big boys. I don't want to be in the old folks home.

Since I was 19, I've had the most fun possible every single day, even when I had a rough life. It was the army which taught me about life, and the theater which taught me how good it could be.

I was a repertory actor, which meant that I did a play every week. I was a different character every week; for a year, I was doing 40 or 50 characters.

When I'm doing an accent, you shouldn't notice it for a while, if I'm doing it right.
