The greatest luxury is not driving. I didn't own a car until I was 30, and that was a Rolls-Royce, so it was cheaper to insure a chauffeur. I never want to drive again. My mind is always on other things. I hate parking, and I'm very short-tempered and would get road rage, I'm sure.

This is your life, Larry. Learn to enjoy what you've got.

You get paid the same for a bad film as you do for a good one.

That to me is what my idea of film acting should be. There shouldn't be any acting. You should just be watching a real person.

For me, the performance was always playing different people. And so when I got older, was no longer the romantic leading movie star, it became more and more interesting for me, the characters I played, you know?

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.

My dialogue coach said to do a Texas accent, you lean on the next word, and that was the clue to me.
