light fire people
When you work in front of the people, either in a film or in television, the people who are in the room with you are not watching you work, they're working so you'd have to light a fire to get them to watch what you were doing.
depressing fun people
I have more fun and more grand and glorious moments of my life than anyone I've never known. I know that some people call that manic-depress, and that other people call that being touched by God. I just call myself lucky.
memories people want
I spoke so much about being a manic-depressive. I want to bring everyone back to my earliest memories of this companion of mine. Some people call this companion I have an ailment, or worse a terrible nightmare from which some people cannot awaken. I know that I have nothing to be ashamed of. I have nothing that should garner a stigma.
people adultery commit
People who commit adultery must die. Everyone knows that. Any movie tells you that!
attitude cocky people
When you Google me, you'll find a lot of people don't like Richard Dreyfuss. Because I'm cocky and I present a cocky attitude. But no one has ever disagreed with the notion I represent, that we need more civic education. So far there's 100 percent support for that.
people way john-kennedy
John Kennedy really did extend the reach of the American people and said, like Lincoln said in a way, that our reach is farther than our grasp - and we should aim high.
night people film-and-television
Theater is completely different from film or television. It has a beginning and a middle and an end and it's different every night. And it's far preferable to any other except in the sense of not getting paid, people who want to eat should do film and television.
anyone humble played
I don't think anyone has really played this in 400 years. Everyone has to get humble here.
adult george kerry learns present thinking thinks
Kerry is an adult - he thinks things through. He learns from the present as well as the past. To George Bush, thinking things through is for sissies.
asking cindy form higher point questions starting
Cindy Sheehan is making a starting point with the questions she is asking and it's not unpatriotic to ask them, ... It's actually a higher form of patriotism.
gives kid
And don't kid yourselves: No one ever gives up power, ever.
character actors
In my experience, it's usually up to the actor how a character is portrayed.
teacher teaching class
If I wasn't an actor, I'd be a teacher, a history teacher. After all, teaching is very much like performing. A teacher is an actor, in a way. It takes a great deal to get, and hold, a class.
dance uncles like-you
Well, I can't (sing or dance). Actually, I sing like a seal and dance like your Uncle Leo at that wedding where he got up and went 'ya, ya, ya'.
