I was in a movie called 'Twister,' and in it, I had to hit a golf ball off of a roof with a driving wood. The guy who owned the place where we shot showed me how to do it, and I hit the ball about 150 yards.
I think any performing artist can do films, or, as a matter of fact, anybody out there in the street can be a film actor with no experience whatsoever if you've got a good director.
I just want to say, good night, sweet prince, may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.
I sing and play guitar and harmonica. I've been doing it for a long time.
I am not into any religions. I have been mostly influenced by Eastern religions - Taoism, the essence of Hinduism and Buddhism. But my belief is not having any beliefs.
You want people walking away from the conversation with some kernel of wisdom or some kind of impact.
I always had a dramatic flair. I'd like to dress up like a cowboy, play make-believe. But I didn't realize acting was something I had to do until I got to college.
Molly Ringwald, she's a natural talent. Every girl in this country related to that girl.
The void, the concept of nothingness, is terrifying to most people on the planet. And I get anxiety attacks myself. I know the fear of that void. You have to learn to die before you die. You give up, surrender to the void, to nothingness.
There is no answer. That's what Buddhism says. The Void, oblivion, no answer. To be in that state is an enlightened state.
I can understand why it takes some people a long time to really be a singer. You have to find out, 'Why am I singing? What am I doing this for?' I do it because I enjoy it, and philosophically, music is a catalyst. It's a refining agent.
Heisenberg, Max Plank and Einstein, they all agreed that science could not solve the mystery of the universe.
I do all the classics, like Dylan, Kristofferson, Jimmy Reed, Mexican mariachi songs, some jazz songs from the '30s. Cole Porter's 'Begin the Beguine,' that's one of my favorites.
I hated being typecast in those roles. It was personally limiting, only playing stereotyped heavies. But I got those roles because I was angry, because that's what I projected. I was angry at my mother and father because they didn't get along, angry at the church. On top of that, I had an extreme lack of self-confidence.
I met Dylan on 'Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid.' We buddied around for quite a while after that. We jammed together; he liked my Mexican songs.
The most terrifying thing for most everybody in the whole Western World is to take responsibility for your own life and to experience real freedom.
Speech lessons probably did more for my singing voice - they teach you breathing, resonance.
I've always been a searcher - you know, a hunter. I'm certainly not the only one. They say actors shouldn't get political and everything, but you can't separate yourself. You can't disconnect yourself from anything.
I don't believe in singing lessons. You can sing or you can't.
I grew up Southern Baptist. In the Bible Belt.
