I turned down Short Circuit 2 too and I now wish I hadn't. Sequels are a lot of fun and you get to hang out with all your friends.

The worst professional advice I've received. "If you were the last person on earth, I would never choose you to be a movie star."

When people are nasty, it gets everybody's attention, and it gives them a name.

For 15 years I did two to three movies a year, sometimes four. I didn't get to spend time building my personal life.

From 1980 to 1990, I shot more films than any other actor in the Screen Actors Guild, apart from Gene Hackman.

Wanting to work is a luxury; having to work is not. If you're an artist, an actor, and you don't have to work, then you do work that you wanna do.

I've always been proud of my character and how I live my life. So my regrets are few, and the ones I do have, I'm glad I have.
