We basically each had our own opinion about what they bid,

What was I qualified to do to make a living? Nothing. You don't need qualifications as an actor or a politician. And I didn't want to be a politician.

I've had to work hard at that easy-going manner you see on screen.

People who don't know me think I'm easy-going, but I'm a pessimist by nature and an old curmudgeon.

I think people like to see a little larceny in their heroes.

My goal has always been longevity. Not fame and fortune, just get a job and keep it.
