All good actors are unpredictable, and a little crazy in a good way, because they feel more secure playing other people than themselves.

We're all expendable. We think the world's going to stop when a pope dies, or a king. And then... life goes on.

I've done my "mind over matter" movies, and I think probably that people aren't really interested in seeing me do that anymore. I think I'm kind of past my prime to do dramatic films. I think it'd become kind of like almost a pathetic cry out to be recognized as a serious drama actor.

I've had a lot of operations. I'm kind of like Franken-actor.

Now it really is, believe it or not, 90% of the films are green lit, not by the studio heads, but by the marketing department.

Voices are like fingerprints, from Cagney to Bogart. They never lost it. My voice is instrumental in categorizing me.

It would be great to be able to pass on to someone all of the successes, the failures, and the knowledge that one has had. To help someone, avoid all the fire, pain and anxiety would be wonderful.
