Yes, but I don't think of the Teen Angel as of an age.

I think todays music absolutely stinks. I really do mean that.

Well, we all age, but Id been taking herbal supplements for a long time.

Any chance I had to get in front of people - amateur talent contests at movie houses like the Broadway, the president - I took.

Kids know me from their Grease DVD, so they instantly respond. You can hear a pin drop when I do my old songs.

I've been around two years shy of 50 years doing what I do. I am a musician.

They weren't great pictures, but they were fun, and they really represented that period of time well.

When I started to play trumpet I was fortunate to learn very quickly.

I wound up signing to RCA Victor as a trumpeter, guesting on shows like Jackie Gleason's Honeymooners.

I was not a trained actor.

No passion disturbs the soundness of our judgement as anger does.

One half of me is a hopeless romantic. The other half is well... just realistic.

I'm having a great life. And I'm 73 and they still phone me up and ask me to do a job here and there.

Whatever I thought might hold me back, I avoided. I crossed girls off my list, except as tools for my sexual needs.

There is no excuse for not trying.

I wondered, for the first time in my life, if life was worth all the work it took to live. What exactly made it worth it?

I'm a private person so wasn't the type of person who could talk to people and be like this is going on at home, I want this shirt, this girl don't like me, etc. I just rap about it!

One of the most important things I've learned about acting is that you can't separate how you live your life and how you practice your art.

Drill here, drill now, pay less.

People who repress desires often turn, suddenly, into hypocrites.
