- Wake up in the morning, put your hand to something useful, and take care of yourself and your family.
- Hollywood has to, at some point, admit that what they produce does affect the minds of people.... If you just want to shock 'em... society will pay the price for that at some point.
- [on 'Cheers' co-star, Kirstie Alley's passing]: It's so sad. So very sad. God bless you and keep you Kirstie Alley.
- [on what of his acting work he signs at conventions]: I think it's about even right across the board. They give me all the photos to sign. Star Wars, Superman. And Hammy the Pig is right up there.
- [on the passing of 'Cheers' co-star George Wendt] A true craftsman - humble, hilarious, and full of heart. What you saw on screen was exactly who he was off screen with impeccable comedic timing and a deep loyalty to those he loved. I'll miss our conversations and the quiet moments of friendship that meant the most.
