I think television has always been one to replicate when something's successful.
Television's grown up a lot. It's a little more adult, which I think is a good thing. It allows actors to tell more complex stories. I'm happy to see where it ends up.
Why westerns get segregated into a genre in Hollywood, I don't know... It's just good entertainment.
You don't do characters that are the same as you, otherwise why bother to act?
Im a registered independent with a lot of libertarian leanings.
I praise CBS for taking a risk, which is always the price you pay for opportunity. This is not standard movie of the week storytelling. I think movies of the week have fallen into a niche and that isn't my niche
I haven't gotten fired from many jobs, but you finish a job and nine times out of ten you're just unemployed and you don't know where the next one is. And that does get old. It's stressful.
The Westerns I like aren't really comedies. I'm drawn to the scope of them and the land as a central character.
Popularity is the pocket change of history. The true measure is courage. There will never be another Charlton Heston.
All I see is people out there who are hungry for more.
If a guy as good and decent with as much grace as Chuck Heston can stand up for an issue that I think is very important ... then I certainly could stand up and I plan on remaining a life member for life.
On a day when you're not feeling so good, you put on a happy face, it's infectious - these things sound kind of corny and stupid, but this is our life.
At my age, turning gray is kind of a blessing, where it softens all of the other horrible things it does to you, but it is what it is.
But, you know there's a lot of westerns - not that they were bad - it's just that they can be remade because they're great stories that aren't indelible in an audience's mind when it comes to both the cast and the story
I've never reacted well to other people telling me what to do
Risk is the price you pay for opportunity.
We judge ourselves by our good intentions, but we're judged by our last word.
I've learned by hanging out in Hollywood, where I disagree politically with most people, that most people's hearts are in the right place, and the only thing we have to argue about is the way to solve the problems
It's not that conservatives don't care. We do. We just have different answers than liberals do. It's a difference of the mind, not of the heart.
My mustache gets so many questions he has his own agen now.
Life isn't fair, but you can be.
Unless you treat failure as part of the journey, you're never going to get anywhere.
Few of us are as good as we think we are; none of us are as good as we can be.
I never try to pander to an audience, and I'm really not concerned with my image. I'm far more interested in stretching my abilities as an actor.
I think character is real important. And you know, and I think the public does.
Television's grown up a lot. It's a little more adult, which I think is a good thing. It allows actors to tell more complex stories. I'm happy to see where it ends up.
I think television has always been one to replicate when something's successful. I don't think there's quite as much innovation.
I hate going to the gym, so sweating outdoors sure beats sitting on a stationary bike staring at my navel.
I haven't made a political statement in quite a long time because, frankly, they get repeated, changed.
Good parts should always scare you a little bit, and good parts... you might not get advice to do them.
