With little knowledge of what it meant to be a Jew, I found myself passionately defending the Jewish people. Now, half a century later, I have to defend my son. Anti-Semitism, I’ve seen, is like a disease that goes dormant, flaring up with the next political trigger Picture Quote #1

My memories of Las Vegas were all with my father when I was, like, a teenager.

It was one of my first educations about stars and how they really are back stage Picture Quote #1

The Cold War’s end pushed disarmament down most leaders’ agendas. It’s a sophisticated issue, which I think is one reason why it is not so hands-on to many people. It’s not visceral. It’s not like a starving child Picture Quote #1

That’s also the magic of movies: You get to hang out and live these different lives Picture Quote #1

I think sometimes in relationships, ladies like having a man who takes care of them, nurtures them. If you can’t find it in a man your own age, you find it in somebody who is older Picture Quote #1

If we confront anti-Semitism ... if we combat it individually and as a society, and use whatever platform we have to denounce it, we can stop the spread of this madness Picture Quote #1

For an actor, it’s great fun to play one of these hungry white sharks. Audiences love to hate them Picture Quote #1
