When I sit here and see that the eight brothers from the neighborhood that I grew up with still have success, it had to be magical.

When I was a young actor in Vienna, already my hair was falling out at a rapid rate. I went to a doctor, who said hair was like grass: if you mow it, then it grows back stronger.
