What kills me is that everybody thinks I like jazz.

People know about the Klan and the overt racism, but the killing of one's soul little by little, day after day, is a lot worse than someone coming in your house and lynching you.

I guess the worst day I have had was when I had to stand up in rehab in front of my wife and daughter and say 'Hi, my name is Sam and I am an addict.'

I've never been to jail. I've never been arrested. I've never been locked up.

I've been fortunate to be in films that are classic, that are going to be around.

I get paid all day, every day, which is almost too much for a sensitive artist.
