As an actor, I felt I couldn't compete. I wasn't as cute as the leading man; I wasn't as brilliant as Robin Williams.

The one thing I could do was voices and impersonations and weird characters, and there was really no call for that, except on Saturday Night Live.

I could never learn what I'm learning at college. They don't teach it there, because it can't be learned in that way.

I was 36, and I had decided to quit acting because it was so disappointing.

Marines die, that's what we're here for. But the Marine Corps lives forever. And that means YOU live forever.

I've succeeded beyond my wildest dreams - financially and the amount of fun I have in my life.

I could do John Wayne, Jack Benny, Jack Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and entertain my friends. But I never seriously considered it as a career choice.
