The career doesn't get any easier. A career stays tough.

When I go to where I was getting excellent parts in movies I may have taken a few too soon, too anxious to go back to work and to anxious to make another film and to succeed more.

I work with Sally and I can see Sally doing that. She is very aggressive. Very fun loving and charming... and pushy in a very competitive way and a very healthy way and a very good actress.

I have worked with some great directors.

I didn't have any extra money. But I can't say that I had a hard early career.

I have a theory about that, if you have to say something, if you have encourage for one second a prospective acting student - he should not go in to acting.

No not pigeon holed me as an actor, or as a character, or as to what I could do - but what I would do... and the fact is the things you don't do are almost as important as as the things that you do.

I was very lucky in as much as I played a lot of tennis.

I think that you get something for your acting from almost anything you do.

I did two or three plays every summer.

It takes a lot of energy to teach.

I think this power of living in our children is one of the sweetest things in the world…

For as long as I write, I will never be lost.

Tyranny and anarchy are alike incompatible with freedom security and the enjoyment of opportunity.

The one good thing about repeating your mistakes is that you know when to cringe

Try as I might, I could never feel any great affection for a man who so much resembled a Baked Alaska - sweet, warm and gungy on the outside, hard and cold within.

And being as I'm somebody who loves movies like The Machinist, I also love going along to big mass entertainment movies. I get in the mood for all kinds of movies, and so I like to try each of them.

I'm sure that if I had a partner and that partner cheated on me, that I would be devastated if we were in a committed, monogamous relationship. So of course, it's a devastating thing.

There is nothing as likely to succeed as what the enemy believes you cannot attempt.

You must surrender before you can guide.

A hated government does not long survive.
