A star on a movie set is like a time bomb. That bomb has got to be defused so people can approach it without fear.
In my last year of school, I was voted Class Optimist and Class Pessimist. Looking back, I realize I was only half right.
My motto is: more good times.
I've always fought against being controlled and manipulated and stomped upon by circumstances.
The blues and jazz will live forever... So will the Delta and the Big Easy.
If you get an impulse in a scene, no matter how wrong it seems, follow the impulse. It might be something and if it ain't - take two!
I only take Viagra when I'm with more than one woman.
I've always had lots of friends who share my perspective - I guess you could say that I'm a guy who aggressively pursues his happiness.

I'm certainly not as tough as people think. I'm not a fighter and so forth. I'd just as soon go home.
My whole career strategy has been to build a base so that I could take the roles I want to play. I'd hate to think that a shorter part might not be available because I was worried about my billing.

When it's over for a woman, it's over. You're not getting an appeal.
I would never complain about my life, even though I really would like to have a mate.
