moments lost
The moment you grab someone by the lapels, you're lost.
texan wells
I've always gotten along well with Texans. You've got to.
basketball giving acting
My acting is a bit like basketball. Most females in my films come off very well. I give great assist. And if I'm lucky, I even score.
wells i-can
I can sing as well as Fred Astaire can act.
land actors asking
All of the younger actors keep coming up to me and asking me where all of the land mines are because they know I've stepped on them all.
children two support
I'm paying the third highest alimony and child support in the world. And the only two ahead of me are sheiks.
good-friend people wonderful
Jay Leno is wonderful and a good friend, but it will always be the Carson show to a lot of people.
opportunity air giving
If you've as many films as I have, and missed as many opportunities as I have to do good work and been pissed off about it, you say, "Well, now you've got to start getting it right". If you get a chance, you really want to cook. And the tragedy is, when you finally feel that way about yourself, about your work, nobody wants to give you a chance. And that happens to a lot of actors. But I'm feeling very wanted these days, so there must be something in the air.
regret heart class
I regret that I do not have the dignity of Ricardo Montalban, the class of Dean Martin, or the humor of Bill Cosby. I DO have the heart of a lion.
laughing missing stories
Goldie [Hawn] is one of the sharpest ladies I've ever worked with. She doesn't miss a thing. She's my greatest audience. She laughs at all my stories and in the right places, too.
