It's intimidating to play the nominee for president. The little kid inside you says, 'I'm not enough.' I would guess that happens to politicians, too. They go, 'C'mon, who am I kidding? I'm just this guy or this woman,'
I'm very proud of Quigley and I love playing Jesse Stone. That's not hype. We've got to do about fifty of these, but there are only five books.
I've got nothing against this particular set of candidates, but I do think we're not seeing enough of who they are, ... We're kind of seeing who they and their handlers think we want them to be.
Saber River was a darker story. That character was at a darker point in his life and was carrying a secret that was kind of eating away at him.
Obviously, it's one passion of mine. I mean, I don't always want to do westerns, but it's nice to always kind of have one in the works.
For a character with longevity, you have to have that.
His announcement was so typically Chuck -- he did it with grace and dignity and intelligence, ... Wolf Blitzer Reports.
In the book, he's in his mid-30s and 5-foot-10.
I had a fantasy of being a pro baseball player, and I've gotten to play a Major League Baseball player (in 1992's 'Mr. Baseball'). I loved Westerns as a little kid and I get to do them. I even get to die as an actor and then you just go home and have dinner. It's great. So now, I'm not a candidate, but I play one on TV and I'll be home for dinner.
My first priority is time with my family.
I haven't made a political statement in quite a long time because, frankly, they get repeated, changed.
I think a lot of Magnum was me.
I quit 'Magnum' to have a family. It took a long time to get off the train, but I try very hard to have balance, and this ranch has helped me do that.
I don't think you should do something just to prove to an audience that you can do it, that's way out of your wheelhouse.
