Billy Crystal
I'm a baby. I sleep like a baby - I'm up every two hours. And I think a lot. I worry a lot. I have great nights of no sleep where ideas come.
Billy Crystal
I'm married - I've caught my limit.
Billy Crystal
As a director and an actor, I encourage improvisation but in character and in the moment of what it is.
Billy Crystal
[I did impressions] of relatives because I heard so many different sounds. My dad was in the music business and of course my uncle was a giant [music producer], but my dad in particular had the house filled with these Dixieland jazz stars.
