So I went and did an audition and became the biggest radio actor in Sydney, and that's how it all started.

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.

We don't act like that because we are in good humor we are in a good humor because otherwise we should go to pieces.

My own love was never mine and now I don't even have a dream of loving again.

Help me give up my addiction to Hope.

We're never going to be the ultimate-insider look. You can do 50 insider looks at this Hollywood business, and the satire didn't intrigue me. I think others can do that.

I was very keen on playing a victim.

As footballers, we have time on our hands. Yes, we work very hard but we also have spare afternoons.

A man never reaches that dizzy height of wisdom when he can no longer be led by the nose.

You have to make smart decisions, but you never know what will happen in the future.

Many of us have a mental conception of what a Christian should be, and the lives of the saints become a hindrance to our concentration on God.

If someone does me injury I must desire that this injury shall not degrade me. I must desire this out of love for him who inflicts it, in order that he may not really have done evil.
