A woman doesn't just love a man. She loves who he is. And, who he is is dependent on what he needs.

Six years ago, I completed the premier episode of Hawaii Five-O, and Jack Lord and I immediately realized that we had a good series, that this was a success such as we'd never hoped for!

Beating the drums for Hawaii is not hard to do... the place just grows on you.

And after four years, I thoroughly enjoy Hawaii and the success of the show.

Who knows what kind of life I might have had had I not been fortunate enough to have the parents I've had.

But I found out that bones with flesh are more interesting than bones without.

In the case of Five-O, I believe it was a combination of many ingredients - timing, chemistry, Hawaii.

Nobody really knows what makes a hit TV show.

Frankly - and believe me, I say this without any pretense - when I see the road I've taken, I have to say that thanks to good luck, because without good luck one can do nothing, I've come out pretty well.

They all went down in droves because just scenes of palm trees and beaches can get pretty boring.

If the woman in my life, the one that I felt I loved enough to want to marry, loved my children, I'd know then that her love for me was deeper than I could hope for.

It was an hour of sanity with the good guys winning, a situation where the world was right side up.

I had accumulated some capital and was at an age at which I was interested in generating income. But even though I was risk averse, I was interested in growth stocks.

I am happy to have now as Danny finally a more difficult role, in which I can shoot and fight.

My mother insisted that I have a normal upbringing.

We were living in a tumultuous time, when the world was upside down. Freeman produced a show that was black and white, the good guys versus the bad guys.

When the major studios flourished many years ago, an actor was groomed, developed, and worked frequently at his craft. The studios really took care of their actors.

I thought even if the show only lasted a year, it would be fun.

But it's hard to sustain a successful acting career today.

I give a percentage of the earnings to the Motion Picture Home.

For years I have played the twenty-something lover.

I got into the acting business very young.

My idea of going to hell is going somewhere where there are no books.

The first year we actually did a lot of night shooting and the writers weren't even allowed on location.

Fortunately, I've also been an electrician, and that's a happy memory for me.

It's sometimes unnerving to think of that, and I wish it were possible for all children in the world to have the good fortune I've had in having a giving and loving family.

And I had an old-fashioned idea that dividends were a good thing.

Once you're a winner, you can give all sorts of reasons why you're a winner. Of course, you could all those same reasons to explain why a show fails.

Actually, if I could find a woman who was that wonderful; that understanding, well, I'd give her everything in the world that was in my power to give. And, I'd love her more than I ever thought it possible to love any woman.

You should hear the guy who dubs me in Japan. I like him the most. He has a high squeaky voice.

I just sold a farm in Missouri, and I own a ski lodge in Colorado with some Honolulu partners.

Walt Disney was not a merchant of sadness.

You know, as I do, actors who, having become worldwide celebrities thanks to a TV series, complain of their lot and declare themselves ready to drop it all.

I don't think anyone connected with Five-O believed the show would last as long as it did.

Some people say hawaii is spoiled but I dont think so. Its modern. Its a part of todays world.

I love children and I love men, but I can't commit to either for the rest of my life.

We're all like children. We may think we grow up, but to me, being grown up is death, stopping thinking, trying to find out things, going on learning.

Public opinion polls are rather like children in a garden, digging things up all the time to see how they're growing.

For example, UNICEF works with governments to change legislation such as in India where a law was passed raising the age of compulsory school completion to keep children in school and away from the workplace for longer.

I'm not up on today's television for children, because it's mostly cartoons that don't seem to interest me.

When I see children, I see the face of God. That's why I love them so much. That's what I see.

We have three cats. It's like having children, but there is no tuition involved.

Instead of needing lots of children, we need high-quality children.

Disney had such a hold on the mind of America-they were Adolf Hitler. The whole country thought Disney was some sort of god and that animation was some sort of pure thing for children.

Fiction came quite a while later. I began with short stories and fiction for children.
