My sons are a hell of a lot easier to get through to than my daughter is. She seems to have my number. She can just run through the buttons.

My favorite actor is Wallace Beery.

I am seriously opposed to censorship of any sort.

The way our business is, the way it works out, we end up being residents of everywhere.

I'm just a simple guy swimming in a sea of sharks.

I struggled for 15 years in this business before Miami Vice came along.

Let me just say, I've seen a pub or two.

I made a decision that whether or not I was going to make under the national poverty level wasn't going to play a part in whether or not I was an actor. That's what I do.

Being with all those great bowlers was the greatest three days I ever had.

Even though some of the films I've made haven't been particularly commercial, I don't find them failures.

I pestered the hell out of everybody I ran into until I could play the guitar well enough to write and sing with it.

It wasn't a mission to be a rock star. It wasn't a mission of mine to even be a movie star. I just intended to be a good actor.

Every bowling center should have a house pro.

I joined the PBA way before I should have because I heard a rumor they were going to limit the number of people who could get in.

People in the business will stay with you through drugs and alcohol and divorces and insanity and everything else, but you have a failure, pal, and they don't want to know nothing about you!

It's a joy to be recognized and to have people that are interested in what you do. That can pick up your whole day.

Once you become famous, there is nothing left to become but infamous.

My sons are a hell of a lot easier to get through to than my daughter is. She seems to have my number. She can just run through the buttons.

If I die tomorrow, I've accomplished everything I wanted to do in life.

I had no idea what I was going to do when they threw me out of school.

The most aggressive artists often hide their romantic side.

It's my job to really commit myself to the material and the project and be proud of what I've done, and I am in most cases.

If the material is inspiring and motivates you, then it doesn't really matter what it is.

I can do whatever I want - I'm rich, I'm famous, and I'm bigger than you.

I've never been very successful in a monogamous relationship, but I'm looking forward to the day when I can assume that responsibility.

Hollywood is very much an industry town. Your life becomes caught up in all of the parties and this list and that list. That's not something that I respond well to.

This is what I do for a living. It's not who I am as a human being.

I could hear and feel music going on in me, and I couldn't get it out. You can always depend on a guitar.

London is one of the most enchanting places I've ever been on this planet.

I'd like to think I haven't done my best yet.

You're in this constant state of flux and transition, as if you had jet lag all the time. The acting part of it is easy. It's all the other things that come with it that are a bit difficult.

I consider myself an artist. God granted me some gifts so that I could express myself artistically.

I do what I can to make young people understand that drugs can destroy their lives. I'm the perfect example of what people can accomplish when they have regained a sane body and spirit.

I've had some ambivalent feelings about being an actor. I don't know that I've ever been totally and completely comfortable with it.

I try to parent equally, but I think little girls are a little more sensitive.

I'm not qualified for anything else, so I would imagine I'd either be doing something larcenous or I would have already been caught.

I was a little, skinny, runt kid, and I decided that bowling was what I was going to do in life.

I am stable when my private life is a success.

Once you become famous there is nothing left to become but infamous.

Sometimes, his methods and his motives are questionable and even his morals are questionable in the way he does things. But I think his intention is always to protect his daughter.

Most fathers don't see the war within the daughter, her struggles with conflicting images of the idealized and flawed father, her temptation both to retreat to Daddy's lap and protection and to push out of his embrace to that of beau and the world beyond home.

My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.

I have two children. I have a daughter 29, and a daughter four. They are 25 years apart, so you speak about generations and I must tell you, I have a philosophy and that is every 25 years I'm going to sire another child.

I love being a mother. I loved being a daughter, a sister, a wife. I love being a woman with men. I love having given birth.

We're very open and outspoken about our faith and our beliefs. We also talk about our doubts, our moments of insecurities. We talk about it all day, how we're inspired by God. We recognize little miracles every day, and that's how we're raising our daughter.

My father was a diplomatic officer. As a diplomat's daughter, you have to learn to present yourself very early on.

He's looking for the president's kidnapped daughter; everybody he calls on to help him is busy, but lo and behold, you look across the room, and I'm waiting for that action.

My real achievement is my daughter and my three beautiful grandchildren.

I didn't just want to be Frank's daughter who sang Boots. I take my music very seriously and studied very hard. It's not a joke to me.
