One thing I've very quickly learned is that if you wake up every morning worrying about what's in the press you would go completely and utterly potty.

I think my real depressions started when I was about 16 and doing The Patty Duke Show. I would go to bed at about 10 o'clock on a Friday night and not get up again until 6:30 Monday morning.

Early in the morning I fell in love with the girl that later on became my wife. At that time we were so naive. I wanted to charm her so I read her Capital by Marx. I thought somehow she would be convinced by the strength of his criticism about capital.

My favorite meal would have to be good old-fashioned eggs over easy with bacon. Many others but you can't beat that on a Sunday morning especially with a cup of tea.

I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.

And if I had a preference it would be to be able to not be in the studio until 4 in the morning.

I myself spent nine years in an insane asylum and I never had the obsession of suicide but I know that each conversation with a psychiatrist every morning at the time of his visit made me want to hang myself realizing that I would not be able to cut his throat.

I have retired but if there's anything that would kill me it is to wake up in the morning not knowing what to do.

To be intimate with a married man when my own father cheated on my mother is not something I could forgive. I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn't be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife.

In my afternoon walk I would fain forget all my morning occupations and my obligations to society.

If I feel strongly I say it. I know I can do more good by being vocal than by staying quiet. I'd have a whole lot more money if I lied but I wouldn't enjoy spending it.

It would be nice if the poor were to get even half of the money that is spent in studying them.

I had no idea that I would ever get involved with something like lending money to poor people given the circumstances in which I was working in Bangladesh.

I tend to make low-budget movies but yeah I make more money than I ever thought I would make.

If Warren Buffett made his money from ordinary income rather than capital gains his tax rate would be a lot higher than his secretary's. In fact a very small percentage of people in this country pay a big chunk of the taxes.

Wouldn't it be great if you could only get AIDS by giving money to television preachers?

Well I needed the work - that's the honest answer. I haven't worked for a while a couple of years. So I thought it would be nice to get back to work and earn some money.

I sat with him for three hours and we did not exchange a single word. At the end he handed me as he had done before an envelope with money in it. It would have been much nicer if he had enclosed a greeting or a loving word. I would have been so pleased if he had.

Money is a good thing and it's obviously useful but to work only for money or fame would never interest me.

I don't know what your childhood was like but we didn't have much money. We'd go to a movie on a Saturday night then on Wednesday night my parents would walk us over to the library. It was such a big deal to go in and get my own book.

If there's something that can be formulated regulated give you security then nobody would lose money. Every movie would be successful. And that's certainly not the case.

Ridiculous yachts and private planes and big limousines won't make people enjoy life more and it sends out terrible messages to the people who work for them. It would be so much better if that money was spent in Africa - and it's about getting a balance.

Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn't thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I'm just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn't paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing.

Geez all that money we waste on space exploration just think how many bombs that would buy!
