I liked Dallas better because it was more deceptive, you could do more with it.
Larry Hagman
I often ask people if they would like to give their organs when they pass on, and they say Well, I'm not so sure, I don't know. And I said, Well, would you accept one if you needed one? Well, yeah, sure. And I say Well, there you go - where do you get them from?.
Larry Hagman
Once you get rid of integrity the rest is a piece of cake.

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.

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.

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.

I had a real epiphany. I guess it was during and after the operation. I did what's a common thing I kind of raised above the table and could look at me and listen to all the people talking and understand what they were saying and so forth.
Larry Hagman
I drank my liver out.

I guess it was but I think peoples morality has changed. It's gotten more liberal and more diverse and even in a sense much more fundamental, you take the fundamental religious right in this country, its got to go back about 50 years.
Larry Hagman
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.

Actors can't retire. What would they do?
Larry Hagman
I think JR would make a better President than the one we have now.
Larry Hagman
We've got to find another way of producing energy.

I have been married for 58 years to the same woman. Our secret? Separate bathrooms.
Larry Hagman
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
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 think that everybody in the world, whatever colour or creed, has a jerk like JR in his or her family somewhere. Whether it is a father, uncle, cousin or brother, everybody can identify with JR and that certainly had something to do with the success of 'Dallas.'

Barbara Eden is the most beautiful girl in the world.

On being asked by Channel 4's Derek Thompson if he owned horses - No, son. I don't like anything that eats while I sleep.
Larry Hagman
My television and movie career has also taken me all over the world. I've had great times in the Far East, Russia, South America and Sweden - where I met my wife of 55 years, Maj.
