“There was a time where I chose my jobs based on what jobs were available to me, so I would choose 100 percent of them.”

I meet people and a lot of times, instead of saying, “Are you from the East Coast?” people just go, “you’re from the East Coast, right?”, having no reason to have known that. I don’t know what that is. Maybe it’s just that I’m Jewish.

I do not sell life insurance. I sell money. I sell dollars for pennies apiece. My dollars cost 3 cents per dollar per year.

I rarely use the telephone because he may not want to see me. I have a better chance of seeing the man I want to see if I do go.

Youll have the same problems when I walk out, as you had when I walked in… unless you let me take your problems with me.

Goals aren’t enough. You need goals plus deadlines: goals big enough to get excited about and deadline to make you run. One isn’t much good without the other, but together they can be tremendous.

I don’t like sci-fi/fantasy.

And I’m overcompensated for that. So it’s insane to not use that pedestal to try and at least help someone or something that’s in need.

Besides, switchboard girls and secretaries have become very good. They’ve learned to take you apart. ‘Who? Why? What for? What company?’ You don’t always get by. I seldom call on the phone. I’d rather go.

I’m a lot happier in people’s living rooms weekly than I think I would be if I was really, really relying on a movie career to keep me fulfilled and excited.

I know plenty of actors smarter than me with better taste than me who love horror movies and love sci-fi and it just doesn’t make sense to me.

Life insurance is time. The time a man might not have. If he needs time, he needs life insurance.

Do you know anyone who has a lease on life? It isn’t a question of if; it’s a question of when.

You haven’t done anything wrong. You just haven’t done anything, and that’s what’s wrong.

The basic purpose of life insurance is to create cash…nothing more or nothing less. Everything else confuses and complicates.

Unfortunately, my career is increasingly leading me into rooms where everybody is funny.

I think I’m the funniest guy in a room full of unfunny people. Unfortunately, my career is increasingly leading me into rooms where everybody is funny. I’m the least funny person in a room full of funny people.

When you are public figure, you’re an athlete or actor, that is your job to speak out on certain things. I think you speak out on what you desire to speak out on or your passionate about.

All actors who have been around for a long time, which I have, and have been skint for long periods, which I have, find it difficult to turn down jobs. If I turn anything down my stomach turns over. I feel sick. It feels like gambling.

Central and western Pennsylvania has one of the best workforces in the country and this will provide job training, new skills and additional resources for those trying to find a job.

Intelligence is an interesting word. It is also something which, in my opinion, is misunderstood by many people. There are those who believe that we go to school to become intelligent. Or, the more experience a person has on a particular job, the more intelligent they become.

There are three times in a man’s life when he has the right to yell at the moon-when he marries; when his children come; and when he finishes a job he had to be crazy to start.

The most difficult part, when you decide to make running a part of your life style, is the basic initial commitment.

I live by the motto of “chase your dream, make your dream your job, make your job your life.”

I took a gamble in becoming an actor and my dream job has been realised.
