Acting is like letting your pants down; you're exposed.

Twenty-five years ago I couldn`t walk down the street without being recognized. Now I can put a cap on, walk anywhere and no one pays me any attention. They don`t ask me about my movies and they don`t ask me about my salad dressing because they don`t know who I am. Am I happy about this? You bet.

It seems to me that the older I get, the more running around I do with less satisfaction, just spinning my wheels.

I picture my epitaph: 'Here lies Paul Newman, who died a failure because his eyes turned brown.

A feud should live a full and colorful life, and then it should die a natural death and be forgotten.

Newman's first law: It is useless to put on your brakes when you're upside down.

The problem with getting older is you still remember how things used to be.
