Every story has its demands.

If you're really satisfied with your position on something, you just say, 'Hey;' you just very calmly present something.

I don't like to see a president who is just out campaigning all year long or for the last four years. I'd like to see somebody who's going in the office. In fact, I'd like to not see them because that way you'd be sure that they'd be working.

I always thought of myself as a character actor. I never thought of myself as a leading man.

I think Pebble Beach is kind of a unique place on the planet.

Movies were invented for Jimmy Cagney, and he was invented for the movies. A perfect match.
