Honestly, when I got to Hollywood I was trying to sell my songs.

So I got interested in singing and I have always used my voice. Not professionally as much, but around the living room, the campfire, that kind of thing.

Suddenly Star Wars came out while we were on hiatus, and we looked like the old Buck Rogers series, where they had cigarette smoke blowing out the back of the rocket ship.

I got a series with the WB next year. We start shooting in July. It's going to be called Safe Harbor, and it's an hour show. It's a Spelling show and will follow 7th Heaven.

The best aunts aren't substitute parents, they're co-conspirators.

I learned to play guitar at a young age and converted poems and stuff that I had written to songs.

I have four kids; three girls and a boy. The oldest girl is 13, and has her own social life now, so there's a bit of begrudging cooperation there. It's tough.

I directed an episode of Touched by an Angel a couple of months ago, and I will be doing more of that. I just like to keep a bit of variety going; it keeps things interesting.

I have to own something before I can say it, and I have to own it before I can sing it as well, emotionally. I only enjoy acting and singing if I am believing what I am doing.

What I ended up doing was becoming an actor who didn't mind doing other people's words.

Then when I got to Hollywood, the first musical I did was Festival in 1977.

If the human brain is really capable of having 60, 000 to 80, 000 thoughts per day, Brent was living proof, because he never stopped thinking.

Our ancestors, who were able to survive and reproduce under unimaginably harsh environmental circumstances, refined and perfected the human genetic recipe.

A painting that is well composed is half finished.

My proudest achievement has been the success of the shows and artists I have been involved with, because they were made in Britain.

I'm prickly. I fuss over every single detail.

Justice is the means by which established injustices are sanctioned

To lie about a far country is easy

Love can be begged, bought, or received as a gift, one can find it in the street, but one cannot steal it.

Happiness springs from doing good and helping others.

The wide world is all before us - but a world without a friend.
