Acting is a total physical, emotional sensation.
I've got the best deal on Earth. Where else can I sin and know that I'm forgiven for it?
I do not want to act unless I have a a great intimacy with the people I'm working with.
I live a very quiet life, although I'm very urban and a diehard New Yorker
I've brought my daughters all over the world-they travel with me. I drag them out of school just to keep the relationship. When I'm home I'm a big-time daddy.
It's a blessing and a curse. But it's not always the best situation to be in. As a profession, I don't recommend acting at all.
I never pursued a career relentlessly
I've worked for 27 years nonstop in theater and films. That's a lot of work.
I never pursued Hollywood banging my drum, because I was never in a film big enough to do that
The Italian gangster thing has become a form of the modern-day Western
You love what you do, you are cursed with it, and then you get known for being cursed with it
I don't champion the idea of being in a Hollywood movie. I never had fun in one of them
Literature is air, and Im suffocating in mediocrity.
I stopped courting Hollywood a long time ago
