When I look at a person, or a character, it is in every case the beginning of an endless journey. And I don't suppose I know where that starts. I know that I have to, like every other person, make decisions and have opinions. But I'm real careful to not judge crassly or cheaply someone else's life.

Being famous is not something that would make me feel successful - unless one was striving for mediocrity.

I am so thrilled by the privilege of life, and yet at the same time I know that I have to let it go.

I was a science fiction junkie for a long time.

Also CSPAN is really the great treasure of the media as far as getting information.

Being a father, being a friend, those are the things that make me feel successful.

But I am not going to live for ever. And the more I know it, the more amazed I am by being here at all.
