My last son is leaving to go to college; my grandchildren are being born. My mother is living with me.

I haven't had an orthodox career, and I've wanted more than anything to have your respect. The first time I didn't feel it, but this time I feel it, and I can't deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!

There are some actors who are my contemporaries who I think of as purebreds and I'm not.

The roles... the deep roles that I've gotten to play have turned my course. They've changed my life experience.

I certainly have a very colorful nature, filled with great highs and great lows... in my early adulthood I probably was grappling with some serious depression issues.

I don't want to look old and worn, but what can you do? My real focus is being an actor. I care more about having the opportunity to play roles that I haven't played than I care if my neck looks like someone's bedroom curtains.

I really like cable T.V.
