A Quote by Al Pacino

You need some insecurity if you're an actor. It keeps the pot boiling. I haven't yet started to think about retiring. I was shocked when I heard about Paul Newman retiring at age 82. Most actors just fade away like old soldiers.

I'm just happy as a lark having a good health. People say are you thinking about retiring, I don't have time to think about retiring.

Betty White

All my friends were retiring, and it got to the point where I was like, 'Hey, how come I'm not retiring?'

Johnny Miller

Since my act is a goofy reflection of what's going on in my life, I started doing pot jokes, and I noticed that audiences invariably love pot jokes. Even people who don't smoke pot think it's a funny subject. So when I started getting laughs, I started doing more material about it. When people come to see my shows, there are a lot of stoners in the audience, but there are also a lot of people who just like me. So I try to give a healthy mix, where people aren't going "There are too many jokes about pot!" or "There's not enough jokes about pot!"

Doug Benson

I'm not just retiring from the runway, I'm retiring from all modeling. God, I love saying that! When I was 18, my mom said I have to have a plan. I decided I'd leave on top. I want to be like the athletes who seem stuck in time. When you see them at 50, you say they probably can still run like a champ.

Tyra Banks

Sometimes I think about retiring but not stopping work. Just 're-tiring' - put on some new tires and go on to do something else.

Jeff Bridges

The people I've respected most in the industry over the years - Paul Newman, for instance. I just loved the way he handled growing old on-screen. It's understanding that you're now basically a character actor.

George Clooney

One of my favorite actors is Paul Newman. He could tell so much with a single look, whereas some actors would need an entire five page monologue to give off the feeling of what he could say with just a single look.

Ryan Kwanten

George Clooney

The only reason I ever thought about retiring from the front part of the camera as opposed to the back is sometimes you think, "How many roles are there for someone my age?"

Clint Eastwood

There's no point in retiring because there's no fun in retiring.

Robin Leach

Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.

Douglas MacArthur

When you do something that you like, and you think you can keep doing it, you don't think about retiring.

Carolina Herrera

I knew I was a good stage actor but I had no idea about movies. And I wasn't a Paul Newman type of guy. That's why I thought the stage is just right for me.

Ed O'Neill

There was no last animal I treated. When young farm lads started to help me over the gate into a field or a pigpen, to make sure the old fellow wouldn't fall, I started to consider retiring.

James Herriot

The world has turned over many times since I took the oath on the plain at West Point?but I still remember the refrain of one of the most popular ballads of that day which proclaimed most proudly that old soldiers never die; they just fade away.

Douglas MacArthur

When you think about retiring, you're done. You already checked out.
