Eddie Albert

You can forgive yourself a great deal.

Usually in features, I'm the lead. I consider the director the captain, but I consider myself the first mate, and it's up to me to keep in contact with the heart of the crew.

I don't really care how I am remembered as long as I bring happiness and joy to people.

I don't think I'm proud of anything in acting.

I always thought I was a singer, but I really am not.

I always knew I would act. It was just a matter of time.

If I wasn't Eddie Albert's son, I'd be someone else's. It gave me a chance to do a lot of traveling, but mostly I'm glad I'm his son because he's such a good man.

What's the most important thing in the world? It's love, and I look at that as an energy, not a sentiment.

Courage is just fear plus prayers plus understanding.

I was not really as good as I should have been.

And so I missed those best years and I find it difficult for me, in groups, to be comfortable.
