Acting doesn't suffice.

I'd much rather turn down a starring role in a bad picture and do a small role in a very good picture.

The fact that I'm going to be unsuccessful at times is pretty well-balanced by the fact that I'm going to be successful at others.

But I did a lot of boxing and I was captain of an Australian surf club.

I was one of the first of the uglies. Rock Hudson and Tab Hunter... were very pretty fellows, and that was the trend. I was one of the first of the uglies to get lucky.

I did well as an actor in Australia, and then Paramount invited me over... to have a look at me.

I am proud to be an actor.

Anyway, when I was a kid, I dutifully went to the Sydney Technical and Fine Arts College.

I'm not doing my work for constant success.

I worked at Mark Foy's during the day and studied drama at night.

When people think it's successful, I'm grateful. When they don't - OK, I'll try again.

A best friend isn't someone who's just always there for you.It's someone who understands you a bit more than you understand yourself

You express the truth of your character with the choice of your actions.

A person who always finds something wrong is most likely thinking wrong.

The circumstances that surround a man's life are not important. How that man responds to those circumstances IS IMPORTANT. His response is the ultimate determining factor between success and failure.

I tend to eat vegetables only when I'm with the kids and the rest of the time, I'm a bit slack. But, I am weight-conscious, so I concentrate on avoiding junk food.

People have always wanted to be recognized, and that's human nature. But people used to want to be recognized for their accomplishments, and now they simply want to be visible.

Who then is the greatest leader? The one who has served the most.

Nothing makes you realize you don't know what you want more than getting what you want.

Music has the power to bring people together like no other art form.

Remove those 'I want you to like me' stickers from your forehead and, instead, place them where they truly will do the most good -on your mirror!
