Acting Is An Escape From The Boring

I Don't See That Many Plays, And For Me, Musicals Are Rarely Pleasing. I Feel The Actors Are Being Put Through A Kind Of Nightmarish Labor. They're Like Animals Being Forced To Pull Heavy Carts Of Vegetables At Incredible Speeds.

I Spend Most Of My Time Thinking About Things Like Laundry And Buying Stationery Supplies.

'the Princess Bride' Is By Far The Most Popular Film I've Ever Done. I Don't Think I'll Ever Top It.

Acting Is Trying To Be Absolutely Truthful; To Get Audiences To Believe That You Are A Dean, When, Actually, Not Only Are You Not The Dean, But If You Walked Into The Building They'd Probably Throw You Out. That's Very Hard.

I Started Writing Plays In Around 1967, And At A Certain Point, I Thought, 'i'm Writing Plays, I Should Learn About Acting And What It Is.' So I Went To The Hb Studio In New York, And I Was There For About Nine Months.
