What drives me is I love my profession. I love to do it.

When you shift the gear and that little needle on the tach goes into the red and reads 9,000 rpm, that's bad.

The most solitary I ever felt was when I was living in New York. I used to live in Enrico Caruso's old apartment, and I had a special staircase that took me up to the roof. There was nobody up there.

The tango is a very interior dance. It's not an exterior - it's not flashy and all over the floor. It's a very interior dance when you see the old guys dance in the clubs. I learned everything from the old guys in the clubs.

Very often some of the religious miracle plays you see on television can be very corny, I find. And so simplistic.

I don't have many people showing up at my door. Very few people come out. When they do, I get a little suspicious. I live way up on a hill, way, way back in the country.

A young actor once asked me, What do you do between jobs? I said, Hobbies, hobbies, and more hobbies.
