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

When you have nothing to lose, the sky's the limit.

Show business has never been my everything. It's a means; it's not the end. It's a means to the end. I want and have always wanted freedom. That was always my goal, to not have a boss, to not have anybody tell me what to do. Luckily, as an actor, I got that.

If I could spend the rest of my life inside one movie it would be The Godfather, because it's the greatest movie ever made.

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."

I'm lucky to be in this business. I'm very grateful.

I'm somebody who deserves to be supported and encouraged to continue my work because I have a lot to give.
