I just love working with actors in general.

I define success as being comfortable with yourself and your life. And that is about as good as it gets, really.

Sounds so silly, but I want to accomplish getting my kids through college.

I am a great believer that what makes our show different is the humor.

I am very proud of my name. My full name is Richard Treat Williams.

I think families find a dynamic that works for them.

It's exciting to do something like this because usually what happens in theater is that, after the first or second reading of a play, it falls apart completely and the rehearsal process is such that you begin to pick up the pieces and put it back together again.

For the first time in a while, I must be honest, I really genuinely look forward to coming to work every day.

And I fly planes all the time. And helicopters.

Basically that was the moment when I thought I'd like to do this forever. I never changed my mind.

Also, if you're in a TV show that does turn out to be very successful, you then can do whatever you want to do in theater for a very long time.

The wonderful thing about Food for Thought is that it lets you keep your hand in theater and be in front of a live audience without a commitment of six months, or even three months.

I'm a partner in a company called Helicopter Services and Instruction out of New Jersey.

My children are 10 and three, and the longing and the need for them is incredibly powerful.

Bambi can't act. Bambi had major attitude.

I don't think of myself as a role model.

I have a beautiful wife and two beautiful children, and every day I am paid to do what I love.

Well, I've got two small children and this is a very important time for me to be around them.

I just love working with actors in general.

Yes, I am a pilot. I am a flight instructor and a commercial pilot.

The day my son was born my life changed completely.

This is the kind of work I've aspired to my whole career.

I couldn't imagine my life being any more successful than it is now.

Robert Treat Paine was a signer of the Declaration of Independence.

I don't usually experience that because there are few people who intimidate me, but Woody was one of them.

But I like to be thought of as a good father and a good husband.

Honestly, I didn't know I was a role model.

Disappoint anyone... hell disappoint everyone but dont ever disappoint yourself.

Actors love mental disorders, dialects, and corsets. Give them one of the three and they're happy.

What's fascinating is that when you write a script, it's almost a stream of consciousness. You have an idea that it means something, but you're not always sure what. Then when you get on the set, the actors teach you.

Young actors often don't think of the consequences of doing nudity or sex scenes. They want the role so badly that they agree to be exploited, and then end up embarrassing family, friends, and even strangers.

I've seen many actors go awry by making the wrong choices early on.

Actors are able to trick themselves into treating anything as if it's fantastic. It's a kind of madness really.

David Cronenberg knows what we actors do as artists.

I like doing them and they're ridiculous and the actors can improvise a lot, and they don't have to be really realistic characters that hit a very specific tone as in a feature film. They're really fun, I want to make more of them definitely.

I'm not in the business of becoming famous. And that's the advice I give to younger aspiring actors. Work onstage and do the little roles. In the end it's not important to be seen. It's important to do. There's a lot of disappointment in this business, but my family keeps me grounded.

Actors get pigeonholed very quickly, particularly movie actors. In the theater, one is more used to casting people against type and trusting that their talent and skill will get them through.

Comedians are not usually actors, but imitations of actors.

I was very pleased you know, and I was afraid that I might stick out, but I didn't. My happiest thing about that picture is that I proved that American actors can speak as well and also fit in with an ensemble like that.

I've worked with a lot of really fine actors, both on stage and on screen. The level of their game lifts me up and brings the level of my game up to theirs. Always. It's like a constant upgrade.

I feel like I'm the most well-adjusted character on the show, even though I'm sure the other actors would tell you the same thing about their characters.

There's a constant flow of child actors. It's kind of funny to watch the new crew come through. I think, You poor little things. You're going to have to struggle for a long time.

I'll miss the relationships I have built with these actors. I'll miss the devotion we have to this work. Over this length of time, the tendency is to think it will never end.

After the war, there was no industry. We lost the war. We had our whole city destroyed. No money. No studio. No film. No camera. No equipment. We would shoot in the street. We had no actors. Nothing. But we wanted to do movies. And we did the best movies in the world.

An actors' tribute to me is in his work.

A few nights ago I went to a Hollywood screening of a small independent film made by Sally Kirkland, an old friend of mine who also did terrific job acting in it. There were other actors in it and they were all terrific.

This friend of mine said he was surprised to find that - I don't think it's quite a majority - a bigger percentage of actors are introverts than extroverts. It was a big surprise to him. Now, I know me, and I'll do anything if I'm playing a character. Or anything that's true to the character, anyway. But in real life I'm a little more withdrawn.

Plastic surgery and breast implants are fine for people who want that, if it makes them feel better about who they are. But, it makes these people, actors especially, fantasy figures for a fantasy world. Acting is about being real being honest.

When on the set of a film, you have to play natural for entire scenes in a very unnatural environment. You have to express emotions and interact with other actors and also use your voice.
