At My Age, Any Day Above Ground

I Don't Have Any Expectations About My Films. If They're Good, They're Good - If They're Not, They're Not. About 10 Years Ago, I Remember Going To See One Of My Movies - I Can't Even Remember Which One Now - And Everyone Was Jumping Up And Down, Getting Excited, Saying What A Great Film It Was Going To Be. We All Went In And Watched It, And It Was The Slowest Movie I've Ever Seen. The Next Day, The Reviews Were Terrible And Half The Studio Was Fired.

What I Do Is Just Go Over And Over And Over My Lines And Learn The Script So Well That I Can Just Be Easy And Relaxed. That's The Way I Always Work.

If You Don't Follow Through On Your Dreams, You Might As Well Be A Vegetable.

I Love Traveling. I Like To Keep Moving. I Love The Big Open Spaces In America.

I Was Born In The Same Town As Richard Burton, The Actor, And I Saw Him, He Used To Come - He And His Wife Drove By In The Car In My Father's Shop And Burton Would Come Home From Hollywood And Ask Him For His Autograph, And I Thought, I Want To Be Like Him. And That's All I Said To Myself, I Want To Be Like That. I Want To Get Out Of This Environment Of My Own Empty Mind.
