My mother was Canadian, so you never knew what she was thinking.

The uninvestigated life is not worth living. I don't want to live that way.

Art is about energy positive and negative. All art has the power to heal because it helps us see who we are, and what we resist.

I do miss the stage. There's nothing like it, nothing. When I did my one-woman show and played the Palace and played the Gershwin and all that, I did - what? - eight shows or maybe more a week. Of course you can't do anything else, and you can't run quickly for a cab in the rain, and you can't have a drunken love affair. You can't do any of that. Because you've got to be perfectly healthy. And I guess I value enjoying my life a little bit more than the discipline these days.

The mob taught me how to play gin rummy.

I have a lot of friends who come and stay, and we talk about the world.

An actor has many lives and many people within him. I know there are lots of people inside me. No one ever said I'm dull.
