If you buy an expensive thing and you never use it, I don't think there's a point to it.
You know, there's so much imitation and so much pandering in Hollywood.
Son, never throw a punch at a redwood.
To me, the excitement is in ordering a fine shotgun, going through the process that everybody who has bought one has gone through for 100 years. You order it, you make a significant down payment, and then you wait three or four years for the gun to be custom-made for you.
I hate going to the gym, so sweating outdoors sure beats sitting on a stationary bike staring at my navel.
Do you like my suit? I think this is an amazing suit, don't you think?
I don't feel the obligation to have a big explosion in the first 20 seconds so the audience doesn't turn on another channel. We are trying to make something that looks like a feature film that was bought for television and I think we are succeeding.
I think there have been more movies in the Western genre than any other. I grew up watching those movies.

I never try to pander to an audience, and I'm really not concerned with my image. I'm far more interested in stretching my abilities as an actor.

He said, 'I still got a lot of fight in me, and this isn't the end of the line,' ... And that's very much Chuck, too. He had a lot of humor Friday and it was great to talk to him.
He's always going to be wrestling with that. When he's with Dr. Dick, he often changes the subject.
