Claude Akins's quotes
- Between the war movies I've been in and the heavies I've played, I have about 1,000 dead behind me. I've been killed a good many times, but I took a lot of guys with me.
- I was very fortunate that I get paid for what I love to do. I know a lot of good actors who simply can't find work. Every time I get a job, I say to myself, 'You've beaten the odds.'
- A guy who looks like Robert Redford will most often be cast as a hero. A guy like me or Ernie Borgnine plays a lot of heavies. If you're big, they think you're tough. And if you're tough, they think you're dumb.
- Hell, acting is acting, whether it's for the movies, TV or the stage,
- I feel like an outsider in a business I have been a part of for 37 years. For some reason, Hollywood's mainstream has eluded me.
