It does make you a better director and a better actor.

I think I am a much better actor than I have allowed myself to be.

I think, frankly, that I'm a better director than I was an actor.

There is no such thing as going on to something bigger and better than 'M*A*S*H' because there is nothing bigger and better. I have done the best I can do, and been in the best I could be in on television - with the best people.

M*A*S*H offered real characters and everybody identified with them because they had such soul. The humor was intelligent and it always assumed that you had an intellect.

'M*A*S*H,' to me, was about something. It had value beyond the laughs.

I really feel that I'm a much better director than I was an actor.

I got better as an actor, and still I'm getting better. That's only been possible because there's always been work.

Anytime you get to work with an actor who is beyond you in experience and talent, I feel like they make you a better actor. You really bring up your game.

I think with every part you do, you become a better actor. I've learned from my experiences on that.
