Brooke was special in the sense that we grew up together on that island.

It's only in the United States that they make a big deal about nudity.

I had a lot of coaching for the movie and no, I have never sung professionally before.

You know, I never expected to enter the movie business.

Well, sometimes when you say you want to be like everybody else, you're really saying that you're not.

Hollywood wants press, any kind of press.

I wanted to be a doctor in sports medicine; I was into sailing and all that sort of thing.

Brooke was special in the sense that we grew up together on that island.

Everybody wants to be like everybody else.

I always wondered if I was supposed to be excellent at something or not. I think, because of that, I have a lot of insecurities about myself.

I sat backstage and had a beer with Richard Chamberlain, Paul Newman, and Princess Grace.

I truly, truly believe that I was going in that direction and all of a sudden fate took me and put me here. It's like something else has other plans for me.

Usually I get recognized for The Blue Lagoon or Dallas.

One of my favorite stories is my first kissing scene with Linda Gray.

We also shot at a location that was an Aboriginal sacred ground for the shots coming up the cliff.

I thought that would be kind of cool, to make a bad guy look sympathetic.

I became a very angry person and it was all due to alcoholism.

As much as I didn't want to change, lifestyles do change.

Let me tell you something: if you're on an island for three and a half months and you're four and a half hours by boat from the nearest store, and there's nobody but 30 crew members on the island, I guarantee that you'd be running around without your clothes on.

I figured that, if you do a vampire movie in Hollywood, you've made it.

The guy who owned that island was from Oregon and he decided that he wanted to have an Oregon feeling to it, so he planted pine trees all over the place!

Larry Hagman was a huge star, and he was carrying my stuff for me.

Who cares who comes out of the closet or not, so long as you're happy?

I'm really a romantic at heart.

There are times when directors just don't know what they're doing.

I've been a scuba diver since I was 16 and I think that was one of the reasons they chose me.

Brooke might tell a different story, but I've always loved the water.

I'm a very big believer in fate.

I think the United States is way behind the times.

They built these little tanning booths for Brooke and I to do nothing but lay down and tan all over.

Christians should never fail to sense the operation of an angelic glory. It forever eclipses the world of demonic powers, as the sun does a candle's light.

I grew up with art from the innocent age of ten - with art, but with no sense of identity.

It is the ability to take a joke, not make one, that proves you have a sense of humor.

I have met with some of them - very honest fellows, who, with all their stupidity, had a kind of intelligence and an upright good sense, which cannot be the characteristics of fools.

What we're doing is fun - if you have any sense of humor at all!

It was frightening because it was the first time I had gotten a sense of how serious the problem was. It became clear from his notes that he felt the president himself was involved.

Nothing is more pleasing and engaging than the sense of having conferred benefits. Not even the gratification of receiving them.

You've got to have a sense of humor to keep your sanity.

My music is so often like a lullaby I write to myself to make sense of things I can't tie together, or things I've lost, or things I'll never have.

I am not this big celebrity, but it gets really crazy. You have to go through the nuts of blowing up, in a sense, and then figuring out how to live your life with that.

The art which we may call generally art of the wayside, as opposed to that which is the business of men's lives, is, in the best sense of the word, Grotesque.

Having a sense of purpose is having a sense of self. A course to plot is a destination to hope for.

From this bestial view that the human mind consists of only sense certainty, pleasure and pain, Locke developed an equally bestial theory of the nation. Man originally existed in a State of Nature of complete liberty.

I feel lazy when I'm not working. I learned all my business sense from my dad. He always believed in me, and I think the last thing he said to me before he passed away was, 'I know you're gonna be OK. I'm not worried about you'.

Reducing the budget for Amtrak makes no sense unless the Administration is prepared to implement a reform strategy which can be supported by the budget request.
