There are no sure answers, only better questions.
I'm kind of proud of being a love child.
Unfortunately, the spouses of performers have a terrible, terrible life. They get shunted aside, pushed aside, ignored.
Divorce is something that I never dreamed would happen to me. But it did.
I'm a very neat person.
I love musicals, but I find it's just so deadening. You know, 30 takes, you do a little piece here and a little piece there. There's hours and hours of waiting. And to me, that's as far away from real performance as you can get.
My memory's not too good.
Television's going, as far as I'm concerned, downhill, and I'm an anachronism.
I'm the Steven Spielberg of Malibu.

I've always wanted to learn kick boxing.
I don't think parents can protect their kids in this media-nut culture.
The American people hit the streets and did something that the government wouldn't do: the Civil Rights Act. It didn't go down well with the corporate world.
When I was a kid, I had ambitions for being a television announcer, which was before television took off, you know, in the late '40s.
I've always thought if I could pick my interviewer, it'd be Charlie Rose, who I think is the best.
I'm not cantankerous.
