dad real golf
I went and took golf lessons so Dad would let me play with him. I was just terrible... but I was able to have a wonderful time just walking around with Dad. I can see the real pleasure of that game.
nice believe people
Nothing ever guarantees you anything-that's my rule. My other rule is never believe anything that anyone tells you, and then you'll never be fooled. It's not as cynical as it sounds; it's just that people always say something for a reason-maybe a nice reason, maybe a devious reason-so on that level, you can't take things at face value.
fall house world
I would always fall down the big main staircase in our house. My favorite thing in the world was to pretend to be horribly killed at the top of it, and to fall dramatically down to the bottom of it.
eye lips her-eyes
Her lips said 'no', but her eyes said 'read my lips'.
crazy thinking people
Most of us aren't crazy psychotics, but most of us are a whole bunch of different people. I think when you are in a position of authority, that doesn't remove that from you.
powerful men disease
There's nothing more powerful than someone who has the disease who can be articulate and go in front of Congress or go to local government and say man, this is what's happening, and it's going to be you.
aggravation alzheimers grandfather
Alzheimer's is a devastating disease. It was painful for me and my family to watch my grandfather deteriorate. We must find a cure for this horrible disease.
new-york jobs television
I was as happy doing theater in New York for little or no money as I am now doing television for more money. The happiness, I guess, comes out of it being a good job. The success has to do with the fact that it's a good job that will continue.
wine simple glasses
Maybe it's because I'm getting older, I'm finding enjoyment in things that stop time. Just the simple act of tasting a glass of wine is its own event. You're not downing a glass of wine in the midst of doing something else.
ties security-guards security
I probably was as bad as a security guard as I was as a tie salesman.
thinking people together
I always think extremism is basically a reaction out of fear. What we seem to be experiencing is polar extremism that keeps people from coming together.
spoons like-you feels
Don't you always feel bad when they take away one of the spoons? It's like you ordered wrong.
people tire hoot
People can be a hoot on the set, but if they're not good to work with, that tires very quickly.
mean week shows
You only have a week to do a show. I mean, there's only so deep you can dig in that week.
