I really admire people who are extraordinarily tolerant and patient.

It's not the dress ... it's the way you see me.

More and more movies have been pressured to allow reporters and TV cameras to come onto the set while you're working, and I find that a real violation

I would love to work more - I really would - but there is not a lot of stuff around and the stuff that is around is not very complicated; it tends to lie a little flat

I get cold really quickly, but I don't care. I like weather. I never understand why people move someplace so that they can avoid weather.

I've never worked as much as I would've wanted to, and that's why I end up doing a lot of stage as well, because stage is a full course meal

I've never had a career of that kind of box office power. I've always learned the hard way

Drama is always conflict. Conflict either comes from within or without. The thing that makes a show different is the conflict manifests itself both internally and externally.

I'm basically talking to the audience, standing alone, describing the weather. It's very rudimentary, the dialogue, saying what the weather is like that day.

I act probably a lot more than you see. I happen to choose movies that don't have much of a life, or I choose movies that are shown on cable instead of as features

The rhythm of my career has always been very static, staccato and then silent, and then a lot of work, and then none

A true champion of love and sport wears it proudly in all aspects of life.

We must try not to sink beneath our anguish, Harry, but battle on.

If I could just have my music be played for many people no matter what method or way is used, I would reply that that is not the case.

Footnotes are the finer-suckered surfaces that allow testicular paragraphs to hold fast to the wider reality of the library.

I would quite like to have been a 1920s writer.

A small profit is better than a big loss.

I must reject fluids and ethers of all kinds, magnetical, electrical, and universal, to whatever quintessential thinness they may be treble distilled, and as it were super-substantiated.

Once someone's dead you can't make them undead.
