Wanting to work is a luxury; having to work is not. If you're an artist, an actor, and you don't have to work, then you do work that you wanna do.
I'm not bragging but my movies have grossed well over a billion dollars.
There are 100,000 actors in the Screen Actors Guild. Only 2,000 of them make more than $75,000 a year.
When you're starting out as an actor, there isn't much food around. I was lucky to have a hit pretty early on. I didn't starve too long.
From 1980 to 1990, I shot more films than any other actor in the Screen Actors Guild, apart from Gene Hackman.
I'm not going to say, I'm an actor and I'm changing the world. Who cares?
I've only had good experiences with actors. Starring next to them and directing them, for the most part they're all inspiring, special people.
