I've travelled a huge amount, but almost all of it has been through work. I spent five years stationed in London in the special services of the American Air Force, producing and directing shows for the troops, which I absolutely loved.

People who are living donors who give kidneys. You can't give a heart and you can't give a liver, but you can sure give a lung - well, kidneys, anyhow. And that's where the main part of this whole thing is - one out of every eight people, I believe, is going to have some kind of kidney problem during their lifetime.

Barbara Eden is the most beautiful girl in the world.

Actors can't retire. What would they do?
Larry Hagman
Well yes so far, I was recently in Germany and they had me do six book signings a day and that was too much so I had them cut it down to about three. It becomes taxing at times but its a lot of fun and you meet a lot of nice people.

No no there wasn't any planned 14th season, we all saw the writing on the wall. The ratings had been going down and so fourth, that curve goes on every show and in everybody's life.

My credo is etched on my mirror in my bathroom and I see it when I brush my teeth in the morning. It says, Don't worry, Be Happy, Feel Good. When you see that first thing, and you reflect on it, the rest of the day seems to glide by pretty well.
Larry Hagman
Later on when it became a routine it was not as exciting I'll admit that. The first three years were wonderful, the rest were just money making and having fun.
Larry Hagman
I have thousands and thousands of hats. Some are the most outrageous hats in the world. They are my disguise. I hide beneath them.

It always annoys me when stars grumble about fans coming up to them in the street. I love it. These young stars today with all their airs and graces, they need to remember it is an honour and a privilege to make money from acting. How hard is it?
Larry Hagman
I liked Dallas better because it was more deceptive, you could do more with it.

I drank my liver out.
