I didn't want the book [of memoirs] out, naturally - Larry [Grobel] knew that for 20 years, 15 at least, I didn't want anything written about me. Then, you know, things happen, finally it's OK and I trust Larry. Nothing about it is salacious in any way.

I personally think if you're given four months instead of four weeks on a play, with the people who want to work that way, the play will invariably be different and stronger, and much more fulfilling and richer on all counts. There's no doubt in my mind about it.

Al Pacino
There are a couple of times I would've liked to have married. I think I made a mistake, especially once.
Al Pacino
I've often said there's two kinds of actors. There's a more gregarious type and the shy type.
