I believe that people who do not vote in this country have no right to complain about the government that we are now living under. By the same token, if you don't really vote in television, you're never going to have your way. Write a letter to the president of the network. (television)

The idea of having pride, the idea of manners, I think is very, very important. There's just too little of it in the world and I think there are certain dignities in life to which we should all aspire. (pride)
[Work] allowed me to put my energies some place and focus them some place and relieve myself for awhile of confronting the traumatic circumstances that were occurring in my life. So work has always been a friend to me. (work)
Anytime the sponsors or networks aren't beefing, that's the time to start worrying. There are really two reasons: either they are perfectly happy with the way your show is going, which is highly unlikely, or they've already written you off and haven't gotten around to writing up your cancellation notice, yet. (unknown)
Do you realize if one-tenth of one-percent write out of possibly 40 million viewers - 40,000 write - the weight that would carry? Is that too much to ask - that one tenth of one per cent be attentive to what they see? To take control of their own lives? Or do they want to remain children and give that control away? (unknown)
We will not be able to fund all state mandates in the coming year, ... The one mandate which we will meet is for a balanced budget. (politicians)
We got some financial aid the first year, but not what we were qualified for. (aid and assistance)
We even went to a class about financial aid at the school, ... We thought, 'Oh, we're going to learn all about financial aid tonight.' We walked away and we didn't know any more than the day we walked into the class. (school)
I just don't think he can stay, ... There's just no finances available. (unknown)

I have a passion against wasting time, and that's just what you're doing if you don't take time in a group to get to listen to others. Everybody has a quality worth finding if you only make the effort to discover it. (passion)
I have to go off by myself to keep a balance. I can't always be, "Bill the actor." I must stop and gain perspective so as not to confuse my role and my person. (acting and actors)
Viewers can't expect TV to keep developing unless they make their wants known. And let's face it. The best way to make your wants known in this world is by 'beefing'. (television)
There's something we haven't mentioned here. This is a business. Phooey to the art form. You should use a businessman's head when doing it. Not an actor's head or you'll starve to death. (business)
You know how this business is. It limits a performer, it makes him a specialist. That's great if you want to be a star; bad if you want to be an actor. I've always wanted to be an actor. (business)
