I'm an actor, so I am always scared. You never know if you are on vacation or that you have been retired and they just didn't tell you.
My joints hurt. I'm slower. But I remember what it was like to run and play with the boys. I want to be one of the boys.
To be successful, you have to be willing to be successful. You have to believe in the law of attraction - that you create your own life.
To do something funny, you have to have experienced it in real life and digested it in a way that amuses you.
Everything I am, everything I've been allowed to do, career-wise, has come out of the opportunity I had with 'Cheers'. I think it's one of the funniest shows ever. They are some of my best friends.
I think the struggle, whenever you make a film or television movie based on a real person's life, is finding a dramatic arc that will hold an audience's attention.
The industrial way we fish for seafood is harming the marine habitats that all ocean life depends upon. Indiscriminate commercial fishing practices that include miles of driftnets, long lines with thousands of lethal hooks and bottom trawls are ruining ocean ecosystems by killing non-seafood species, including sea turtles and marine mammals.
I try not to see Woody Harrelson because he has become this big movie star, and it grates, so I try and stay away from him.
I feel very strongly that you can't just beat people up anymore; you have to work hand in hand and find ways to compromise, and get big business involved, because it won't happen otherwise.
Usually if you're the center of a show, part of your job is to host its energy.
My temperament is not the adventuresome sort that enjoys starting new projects every six months. I love ensemble, nine-to-five stability. There's a family dynamic in making a television show that you don't get on a movie, where you're a hired gun for a few months.
Address these environmental issues and you will address every issue known to man. And we keep dabbling in things that aren't really that important in the long term.
Most of us can now record a whole series with the click of a button. We all have DVD players, and the rise of the DVD box-set means we watch this stuff in two, three-hour sessions. So there is this real appetite out there for lengthy, pretty intricate drama. All that is great news for writers.
Centuries-old habitats such as coral gardens are destroyed in an instant by bottom trawls, pulverized by weighted nets into barren plains. And global carbon dioxide emissions from human activity affect the ocean, changing the pH balance of the waters in a phenomenon known as ocean acidification.
California is responsible for selling, trading and distributing large amounts of shark fins that come from all over the world.
When people are in the midst of really heavy stuff and still have a sense of humor, I admire that.
One of the ingredients that made Cheers work so well was the great ensemble of actors we had. That's the case with any good series.
One person goes off and works in Houston the other person goes off to London and you're on the phone to each other and somebody is paying you to kiss somebody else. It's very bizarre being an actor.
One of the hardest things for me to do is watch myself. The first time I see it, I am obsessed with my left ear or my right ear or some other physical attribute, or the fact that I'm 60 or whatever shallow ego thought is running through my head. I'm just destroyed that I'm not Cary Grant or whatever.
I don't think I'm as educated as Whoopi, so I'm lifting myself to her level. But you know, our view of the world, our view of what we can do, our sense of what it means to be here, are similar.
