I'm much more open to being a supporting actor right now. At the age of 60, I'll be second fiddle. Fine. I'm happy to do it.

I mean, I hate when actors talk about how hard their job is. It's ridiculous, because we have the best job in the world.
You think that if you are the best actor, you deserve the most or if you are the biggest star, you deserve the most. That race just isn't important to me.
Cable TV has become where the best actors, writers and directors have gone to work because they are allowed to do character-driven stories.
I always think that I'm the best thing in a lot of bad movies. Personally, I have to. I think that I like me as an actor.
A lot of actors think they can't be happy without the acting... But I think I couldn't be happy with it anymore.
In the beginning was the Word. Man acts it out. He is the act, not the actor.
There are not that many jobs as an actor where you don't get to know what your character will be doing from episode to episode.
