Don't die with a bottle of champagne in your fridge.

Yes, years of compromise and disappointment have added depth to my acting.

I do as much comedy as I possibly can but I'm basically limited by the imagination of the secretaries who make the decisions.

Like someone once said, "If you're going to play the part, you better wear the eye patch." You need to perform the function, you know.

My feelings about my mortality are less selfish than they used to be. I used to affect a cavalier attitude to death; now I see it from my son's perspective.

I'm not fussy about the medium I work in. I'll do television radio, you know. I have to, because that's the only way I can do continually good roles.

Im hoping that a lifetime of compromise and disappointment will read as extra depth and layers in my work.
