That's where humour lives for me. In the body. The Steve Martin kind of stuff or Jim Carrey, that's what I like. I've always felt that's what I would like to do.
Al Pacino
I am more alive in the theater than anywhere else, but what I take into the theater I get from the streets.

Al Pacino
Be careful how you judge people, most of all friends. You don't sum up a man's life in one moment.
Al Pacino
We start to realize that there are anodynes in life that help us through the day. I don't care if it's a walk in the park, a look out the window, a good bubble bath - whatever. Even a meal you like, or a friend you want to call. That helps us solve all this stuff in our head.
