TV is terrific. It's really fast paced which I find difficult.

Life gets more interesting as it goes on. It becomes fuller because there is perspective there.

I think women are used to stepping up and getting the job done when you need to.

I guess getting older has its benefits, one of them being perspective.

I have to say my background was mostly theatre, which I love, and it took a long time to feel comfortable there. That's probably true of anyone's career.

I always felt like a successful actor when I got a job.

I can say that I am, by nature, optimistic.

To find out if she really loved me, I hooked her up to a lie detector. And just as I suspected, my machine was broken.

The land of success will always be big enough for all, but you must still get yourself to it.

Once he saw the officials of a temple leading away some one who had stolen a bowl belonging to the treasurers, and said, "The great thieves are leading away the little thief."

I live at home and, if I want to start work at 11 o'clock, I can.
