"What really matters is that you do what you think is right, what you believe in, and you surround yo..." — Brian Dennehy

My father had a good sense of humour about a lot of things, including life, which I think I inherited.

The older I get, the more interesting the part has to be. Bobby Knight is extremely interesting.

The theater business has allowed me, in a way the movie and TV business has not, to do very, very interesting work. So that's what I do.

It'd be very difficult to cast me as a ballet dancer. Everybody is, in some sense, controlled by their size and their gender. I'm not going to be allowed to play the part that Denzel Washington plays.
