|---|---|
| 1 | [on his work ethic]: There's always the ongoing actor frustration of finding the great role to do next. I don't go to work a lot. I wait as long as I can until the money runs out or a great part comes along. |
| 2 | Wherever I go for the military, they always call me Lt. Dan. They just can't help it. |
| 3 | Sometimes you're in great demand. Then suddenly your career hits the brakes. |
| 4 | Careers, like rockets, don't always take off on time. The trick is to always keep the engine running. |
