Quotes

John: (On his acting and personal life) I had a big part of my life in the theater in Philadelphia. Philadelphia's changed, but I love it. (edit)
John: (On being a homosexual actor) I graduated from high school in '62... and I didn't know any people who were gay. I'm sure there were people, but I didn't know any. For years and years, I guess, I was very uptight about being a gay actor. I thought it would make me less hirable. (edit)
John: (On acting) I would like to be able to be both a film actor and a stage actor - to be an American actor in the style of a lot the English actors who do films. They are these wonderful actors who can do everything. (edit)
