You don't have to have the capitalistic profit motive philosophy.

For a long time after I left 'Bonanza,' I was considered too independent. That meant I got the rejects other actors could afford turning down. I did theater which I loved, but it cannot pay the bills.

I am living with my limitations and have no intention of becoming a writer.

I take parts when I feel like it.

I've worked a lot in Europe, particularly Spain, which I like very much.

When I finish a movie, I get in my camper and drive around the country.

I was so unhappy during the last months on 'Bonanza' I was really neurotic. I was anti-social.

I've never been career-oriented. Did I ever want to be a star? What's a star? Is that something in the heavens? That's the only definition that comes to my mind. And the most important goals in my life have been to move gently, to be at ease with the mystery of what it's all about.

My problems with 'Bonanza' were problems of communication. What we discussed would be, never was. I thought it would be a sophisticated show. Instead it never went beyond the comic strip level.

How much does one person need to live? I've never needed or wanted that much.
