The first award I ever won was for Best New Artist from the ACMs, so they always will hold a special place in my heart.

I'm an enormous admirer of Christopher Lee. He's somebody, along with Vincent Price, who I celebrate, and I wanted my movies to show that celebration and that honoring of these great film stars that were unafraid to go into horror and Grand Guignol and the macabre.

I've never won an award for anything, and I think it's weird. I mean, that's really cool but it's strange to think you could get an award for acting. I always thought that was strange.

Except that awards are competitive, which is a negative thing, they are wonderful for singling out deserving individuals and bringing their work to the attention of many potential readers who might otherwise have been totally unaware of them.

I'm not a great believer in awards-of course the fact that I've never won one has nothing to do with it at all!

You can never be guaranteed good roles because of an award, but I think your profile and net worth as a performer has to do with awards, unfortunately.

I love awards, especially if I get them.

I don't really care about awards.

I won't mention names, but in my career, the most talented people invariably are the easiest and nicest to get along with.

People who win awards for drama and for crying their eyes out for two hours... it's easy!
