Suddenly It Was Gone. I'd Lost More

We Learned Out Craft. Acting Is A Craft And You Must Learn It. I See A Lot Of Talent Today In The Kids But They Don't Know How To Work. They Don't Know The Craft Of Acting And You Can Only Get That On The Stage In Theater. You Cannot Learn How To Act In Movies Or In Television.

I Love The Theater. I Love The Rehearsals. That's Where You Build A Performance. That's Your Foundation. If You're Gonna Build A House, You Start With The Foundation. That Makes The House Strong. That's The Way I Build A Character, From The Foundation Out.

Acting Became My Best Friend. When I Auditioned To Get Into College, The Teacher Said You Belong Here, Mr. Klugman, And To Hear That Word Belong - I Never Belonged Anywhere Before - And Suddenly I Belonged In Acting And It Was So Comfortable And I Loved It.

There Was No Sacrifice In Acting For Me, Even When I Was Starving In New York. I Went Three Days Without Eating. Charlie Bronson And I Sold Blood For $5 So That We Could Eat.

I Was At The Pinnacle Of My Career One Day And The Next Day I Was Put Out To Pasture. I Felt Like A Race Horse With A Broken Leg.
