I've said maybe too many times that I'd rather be typecast than not cast at all.

When you play so many outcasts and derelicts, or even a murderer, you need to play someone healthy.

When I was in the Army, I read a book by Adlai Stevenson. He said law was as noble as saving a person's life. So at one point, I felt that way too.

I like Edward G. Robinson - he started as a character actor and became a lead, which is probably why I like him.

The best came from my martial arts teacher, who also taught Elvis. He said, Your ego will get you killed.

I'm probably the most pessimistic actor I know. I'm always sure I'll never work again.

One of the joys about acting is researching.
