I have been vain since birth. I expected other people to like what I did, although my vanity has definitely diminished over the years.

I am recognized a lot for Clueless, but I am recognized a great deal for The Princess Bride. I dont know... maybe everybody who has seen that movie just goes out on the street.

I do things, and other people laugh at them. I rarely know what the joke is supposed to be or why they're laughing.

You know, I haven't written as much as most other writers. Certainly maybe those who keep a more regular schedule accomplish more.

From being a writer of plays, it was not that surprising that somebody thought of giving me a job as an actor. After I played one part, others came along.

But because we've all been readers, we know what the experience is like, and we hope that what certain writers have given to us, we will give to someone.

The actor's role in the community is quite unlike anyone else's. Businessmen, for example, don't take their clothes off or cry in front of strangers in the course of their work. Actors do.
