I can see how, given a certain degree of sensitivities, proclivities and rage, I could have ended up differently.
I was a very good baseball player and football player as a kid.
The theater is so disappointing, really, that it's hard to go again and again. It's just too heartbreaking. I'd rather watch football or play a game or read.
I'm a little bit of a fabric lunatic.
I'm not a psychiatrist. I'm not treating patients.
I'm not a very skeptical person.
The one natural gift I have is easy access. That's the only natural I gift I have at all. You have to have that, the third eye.
I'm very much a typical midwesterner, and I don't think the condition is curable.
In New York in the Forties or Fifties, everybody's in a suit, an overcoat and a hat.
It never occurred to me to be an actor.
I've always been an avid reader. Everyone in my family read a lot. Considering we were from a little town, we were pretty literate.
My life before children I don't really remember. I've heard references to it, but I really don't remember.
The projects I look for to produce or direct would not be ones in which I would want to act.
There's a reason screens are only this thick.
