I’m a very big believer in fate.

Everybody wants to be like everybody else.

I’m a very big believer in fate.

There are times when directors just don’t know what they’re doing.

I wanted to be a doctor in sports medicine; I was into sailing and all that sort of thing.

I’ve been a scuba diver since I was 16 and I think that was one of the reasons they chose me.

I truly, truly believe that I was going in that direction and all of a sudden fate took me and put me here. It’s like something else has other plans for me.

They built these little tanning booths for Brooke and I to do nothing but lay down and tan all over.

One of my favorite stories is my first kissing scene with Linda Gray.

Who cares who comes out of the closet or not, so long as you’re happy?

As much as I didn’t want to change, lifestyles do change.

I figured that, if you do a vampire movie in Hollywood, you’ve made it.

Usually I get recognized for The Blue Lagoon or Dallas.

I think the United States is way behind the times.

Brooke was special in the sense that we grew up together on that island.

Hollywood wants press, any kind of press.

Well, sometimes when you say you want to be like everybody else, you’re really saying that you’re not.

I thought that would be kind of cool, to make a bad guy look sympathetic.

I’m really a romantic at heart.

I sat backstage and had a beer with Richard Chamberlain, Paul Newman, and Princess Grace.

I always wondered if I was supposed to be excellent at something or not. I think, because of that, I have a lot of insecurities about myself.

Larry Hagman was a huge star, and he was carrying my stuff for me.

You know, I never expected to enter the movie business.

It’s only in the United States that they make a big deal about nudity.

The guy who owned that island was from Oregon and he decided that he wanted to have an Oregon feeling to it, so he planted pine trees all over the place!

I became a very angry person and it was all due to alcoholism.

Brooke might tell a different story, but I’ve always loved the water.

Let me tell you something: if you’re on an island for three and a half months and you’re four and a half hours by boat from the nearest store, and there’s nobody but 30 crew members on the island, I guarantee that you’d be running around without your clothes on.

I had a lot of coaching for the movie and no, I have never sung professionally before.

We also shot at a location that was an Aboriginal sacred ground for the shots coming up the cliff.
