I loved 'Buddy Faro.' I loved the whole idea.
Dennis Farina -
I wasn't so sure about signing up for 'Law & Order.' I liked the show, but another TV series? I'll tell you, though, it's been great, and I had no idea how popular the show was.

One of the funny things in life to me is a guy who takes himself very seriously.
Dennis Farina -
The British have slang words, as we do, but it was fun.
Dennis Farina -
Rooting for the Cubs is not easy, but the best things in life never are.
Dennis Farina -
Vince or Brad or Benicio would say, Maybe we should try this, and Guy was open to changes.
Dennis Farina -
The cast was huge, but I never saw anybody.
Dennis Farina -
I think there is something very nice about going to work to try to make people laugh.
Dennis Farina
-
I've worked on what I think are good things.
Dennis Farina -
I've probably played more non-police roles than people realize.
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.
Dennis Farina -
I'd love to do a Western. A real Western like John Ford used to do. There's not too many of them made, so I don't know if I'll ever get to do that. They're awfully hard movies to make.
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.
Dennis Farina -
Acting is a work in progress for me. I just try to keep my mouth shut and my eyes and ears open, especially with the people I've worked with.
Dennis Farina
-
I'm a bit of a clotheshorse, and having a tailor-made suit is a big deal.
Dennis Farina -
Most cop movies and TV shows are fantasies.
Dennis Farina -
My best year was probably 1948, and after that, it's been downhill for me.
Dennis Farina -
My friends are still the guys I met 40 or 50 years ago.
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.
Dennis Farina -
I think my high-school acting career lasted a day.
Dennis Farina
-
I wanted to do Buddy Faro as a small budget movie. They said no. So I wanted to do it as a series of recurring TV movies, and they said no. So I agreed to do it as a series.
Dennis Farina -
I learned a long time ago: You're in the entertainment business. You're not in the reality business. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other.
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.
Dennis Farina -
This face is nothing to brag about. I don't know what it is that these people see in my face.
