This isn't the most handsome face in the world, and there are a lot of younger guys out there, but I keep hanging in there.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I like working. I like getting up every morning and going somewhere. Where I do it or what form doesn't matter.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
Maybe it's because I was too much reality, but I'm not interested in seeing too much reality anymore. I'd rather watch a Dean Martin concert and let the world go by.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
Everybody wants to look in the mirror and see Cary Grant looking back at them, but that's just not the case.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
You can't act for the editing. You have to leave that to him. So you just go in and do the scene the way you think is right or whatever you're directed to do, and leave the rest of that technical stuff up to the director.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I had seen 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' and I thought that was a different kind of film than I'd seen before, with that kind of editing and slick camera movements.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I have - and you gotta believe this - hardly ever met anybody in Hollywood who's not nice. There are some people I don't like, but everybody has been very nice.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
You really have to act on the force, too. You're involved in a hundred things a day, and you have to react in a hundred different ways, depending on what's going on. And you learn that as you go through your career, how you handle certain situations, interrogations, how you carry yourself. There's a kind of acting to it.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
If you did something, and it wasn't right, you definitely found out about it. And they were pretty smart people, both my parents, so you didn't get too much by them.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
My parents, I don't know about 'strict,' but I would say they were fair and judicious, you know?
Quote by -Dennis Farina
It was a great time, and I liked the guys. I liked getting up every morning and being a cop.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I just think 'Law & Order' is the gold standard. History is going to show that it's probably one of the best series of shows that has been on television.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I've been involved in some movies that I really thought were going to take off that didn't. And then I've thought, 'This movie's not going anywhere,' and it worked. The same thing with television shows.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
We know television should educate and inform, and I believe it should entertain.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
When I first got into acting, I never had any long-term goals, never had any plan. I just thought it would be a good way to make some extra money.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
When I first started out acting, I didn't have anything to lose. I had another career. If I fell on my face, I could say, 'I'll see ya,' and go back to working.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I realize that no one is going to come to me and ask me to be Julius Caesar or a romantic lead, but I think I'm a certain type of guy who looks a certain way, and that's just the reality of things.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
In the kind of roles I do, you can do them and walk away from it and have a really nice time.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
If I'm characterized as a character actor, that's fine with me. Whatever they want to call me is fine.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
One of the funny things in life to me is a guy who takes himself very seriously.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
For some reason or another, 'Richard Diamond, Private Eye,' still sticks out in my mind. I don't think I particularly liked that show, but for some reason, he sticks in my mind.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I try to bring my own style to a role, but I can't change how people think of me.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I'm set in my own ways. I like to do the things I want to do when I want to do them.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I think there is something very nice about going to work to try to make people laugh.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I never jumped into anything, and I never liked being cajoled into anything. I've pretty much always done things because I wanted to do them.
Quote by -Dennis Farina
I don't need to see the old school to remember it and the teachers there. They changed the way that I've always looked at life and learning.
