I guess I'm a semi-retired person. I work out of my house. I'm a skier in the winter - downhill and cross country. I have a place in Montana for the down-hilling.
But most is all to do with work. There are aspects of work that are enjoyable, that you could call a hobby.
It's a real pleasure to go to work when you're in the most extraordinary surroundings, and working with people who are young and interested and creatively keen.
I think some people in their 20s really get it, that acting is about creativity and the work. They get their maturity from their work.
If it doesn't work out there will never be any doubt that the pleasure was worth all the pain.
As far as I'm concerned, any work you get is because people have heard other work you've done.
I'm Italian, but some people think I'm Jewish because I work the Yiddish. I also work the Italian, by the way.
I'll take as much work as I can get. You can always need more work.
I don't really work out. I eat a lot of sweets. I have chocolate all over my house.
I remember thinking, 'I'll audition just once and if it doesn't work out I'll never think about it ever again.'
My background's working class. My parents had to work to make ends meet. We don't come from any sense of privilege.
A lot of people just look at acting as a quick fix - they don't have a work ethic. This is a job; it's not all margaritas on the beach.
I am very hands on doing my own work, all my own stunt work.
I really never had any ambitions to be a standup comic. I was talked into it by guys that I used to work out with.
I've never had a teenage rebellion; I'm not that type of person. I always work out my problems in a conscientious way.
Working with animals forces an actor to work harder because you have to be quick when it comes to improvisation, and you can't break character - at all.
And of course to work with Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton, and work with a wonderful, beautiful script directed by Nancy Meyers, it was really for me a dream come true.
I'm happy to work in the States because there are so many different and interesting projects. I'll go wherever people want me to work.
If you have two parents who have to work, who want to work, you need to have someone to guide your child.
We won't let you down. We will work together and successfully complete this mission.
My work is the only ground I've ever had to stand on. I seem to have a whole superstructure with no foundation but I'm working on the foundation.
