It was amazing for me growing up in the musical decade of the '60s. I saw The Beatles on television and went out and bought an electric guitar.

You cannot make a teenage idol.

Learning how to be a good parent was easy in the end because I'd basically had the What Not To Do manual.

I think of my career as something apart from myself.

I worked on 'Boone' for five years. I tried to find money for it. I couldn't. I ended up selling my house to finance it personally.

Every day we are paying more for energy than we should due to poor insulation, inefficient lights, appliances, and heating and cooling equipment - money we could save by investing in energy efficiency.

I learned my values. It's better to be poor than to be beholden. Wealth is not the object of life. You should be polite as long as possible, and when you can't be polite anymore, don't run.
