| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | Most actors have been fired during their career. |
| 2 | I love to go into the studio on days when I'm not even doing anything. It's like my senior club. Some people go to senior centers, well I go to my senior center. |
| 3 | My memorization skills aren't that great so I need help in that area. As far as everything else, I listen to the director. I'm someone who doesn't argue. I hit my marks and say the lines. |
| 4 | I lead a simple life. I get residuals. I have a family; we're doing alright. |
| 5 | I like the normal things of life: I like the Mets, and the Celtics, and the N.Y. Rangers. I like to watch C-Span; I love Costco. |
| 6 | I think I'm pretty much down to earth, and I'm not really way, way out there. |
| 7 | I think you always have to keep your eye open and take advantage of anything that may come your way. |
| 8 | John Lithgow was absolutely wonderful in 'Dexter,' there's no doubt about it. |
