Almost 90 or 95 percent of all the tracks on this album are cut live, with live vocals.
At a certain point, when everybody has had their way with you, as it were, you tend to become a little more spiritually minded.
At a certain point, when everybody has had their way with you, as it were... you tend to become a little more spiritually minded about this sort of thing ..that's not me that they're talking about - that's somebody else.
Being with all those great bowlers was the greatest three days I ever had.
Even though some of the films I've made haven't been particularly commercial, I don't find them failures.
Every bowling center should have a house pro.
Hollywood is very much an industry town. Your life becomes caught up in all of the parties and this list and that list. That's not something that I respond well to.
I am seriously opposed to censorship of any sort.
I am stable when my private life is a success.
I can do whatever I want - I'm rich, I'm famous, and I'm bigger than you.
I consider myself an artist. God granted me some gifts so that I could express myself artistically.
I could hear and feel music going on in me, and I couldn't get it out. You can always depend on a guitar.
I do what I can to make young people understand that drugs can destroy their lives. I'm the perfect example of what people can accomplish when they have regained a sane body and spirit.
I don't like to build negative thought patterns in my own life. Thoughts are things.
I grew up around tornadoes in the Midwest and Missouri and Kansas.
I had a jump on being an actor and I was making a living at it. You can't really divorce yourself and say, Well, I'm gonna be an actor now and then. You've gotta concentrate.
I had no idea what I was going to do when they threw me out of school.
I have such a great time with my grandchildren.
I haven't had an opportunity to do a really full-blown comedy in a while. I'd like to do one of those like My Man Godfrey or something like that.
I joined the PBA way before I should have because I heard a rumor they were going to limit the number of people who could get in.
I love to race and haven't had an opportunity to do it this summer.
I made a decision that whether or not I was going to make under the national poverty level wasn't going to play a part in whether or not I was an actor. That's what I do.
I made a documentary of the making of the record that I'm cutting together now.
I miss the people, and I miss Sonny Crockett. He was fun to play.
I pestered the hell out of everybody I ran into until I could play the guitar well enough to write and sing with it.
I play tennis a bit. I'm not a bad player, but I would be far better if I could devote more time to that sport.
I started as a singer, or, I should say, I first got the bug to be a performer when I was about 5 years old, singing in my grandfather's church.
I struggled for 15 years in this business before Miami Vice came along.
I try to parent equally, but I think little girls are a little more sensitive.
I want to put the band together again, for a live show. I don't have time to tour, but I'm going to try and arrange five to 10 dates at some point.
I was a little, skinny, runt kid, and I decided that bowling was what I was going to do in life.
I was a pariah when it came to television - I'd made five pilots or six pilots and none of them had sold.
I was very lucky with my first album. It did very well. The second one was kind of uhhh. But that happens.
I'd like to think I haven't done my best yet.
I'm just a simple guy swimming in a sea of sharks.
I'm not politically inclined but I'm interested in what is going on in the world.
I'm not qualified for anything else, so I would imagine I'd either be doing something larcenous or I would have already been caught.
I've gotten very excited about filmmaking. I'm focused on that right now and being a father. That's really all the time I have right now.
I've had some ambivalent feelings about being an actor. I don't know that I've ever been totally and completely comfortable with it.
I've never been very successful in a monogamous relationship, but I'm looking forward to the day when I can assume that responsibility.
If I die tomorrow, I've accomplished everything I wanted to do in life.
If the material is inspiring and motivates you, then it doesn't really matter what it is.
In my relationships, I have never spoken an ill word about any woman, and I'm not starting now.
It is frustrating to do it for 15 years and to watch a lot of your peers moving along and getting feature parts and big roles, that you know you could do very well.
It wasn't a mission to be a rock star. It wasn't a mission of mine to even be a movie star. I just intended to be a good actor.
It's a joy to be recognized and to have people that are interested in what you do. That can pick up your whole day.
It's entertainment, pure entertainment. And frankly, I want my cut.
It's my job to really commit myself to the material and the project and be proud of what I've done, and I am in most cases.
Let me just say, I've seen a pub or two.
London is one of the most enchanting places I've ever been on this planet.
My father tried to get me to learn the guitar when I was about 10 years old. I just wasn't motivated.
My favorite actor is Wallace Beery.
My sons are a hell of a lot easier to get through to than my daughter is. She seems to have my number. She can just run through the buttons.
Once you become famous, there is nothing left to become but infamous.
People in the business will stay with you through drugs and alcohol and divorces and insanity and everything else, but you have a failure, pal, and they don't want to know nothing about you!
Singing has always been a part of me.
That was the end of my career. If you can't get your thumb out of the thumbhole, you can't be a good bowler.
The most aggressive artists often hide their romantic side.
The police here in San Francisco have a very difficult job, not unlike a lot of other cities in the world.
The thing about the violence on television is, there's a good deal of it that's irresponsible.
The way our business is, the way it works out, we end up being residents of everywhere.
This is my problem: I do too many things at the same time.
This is what I do for a living and it's not who I am as a human being.
This is what I do for a living. It's not who I am as a human being.
When I am at home, I listen to Whitesnake, Depeche Mode, Chopin, Stravinsky or Sting.
When you become the star of a series, you are no longer the child saying, love me, love me, love me. You are the parent.
You can go one block to the next in San Francisco and get a completely different opinion of what the issue is.
You can't really be friendly with something that has not evolved one second since the Mesozoic era, in about a hundred million years.
You have to live a good clean life and bow to Mecca.
You learn to temper your enthusiasm until the work is done.
You're in this constant state of flux and transition, as if you had jet lag all the time. The acting part of it is easy. It's all the other things that come with it that are a bit difficult.
