“I'll never be rude to another news person. It's a tough job, a thankle...” — Clarence Clemons Quote

I'll never be rude to another news person. It's a tough job, a thankless job. You really have to get out there and grovel to get your story.

I found out how great the E Street Band is. The reality of a band that you can't scoop aside, can't put in a corner.

Everybody calls me Big Man.

Before the Berlin Wall came down, we played behind the Iron Curtain and sang, 'Born in the U.S.A.,' and I thought, 'We're all going to die. The man is going to get us all killed.' But then you saw all these kids with the American flag and German flags together and singing the song, and it was, wow, like 'We Shall Overcome.'

I'd hate to have a job where I had to be rude to people.

If there is a situation, I try to take a step back, cool down, and solve the problem. Flipping out, freaking out, and being very rude about it is not going to help.

I don't watch the movies I'm in - ever. Sometimes I keep pictures, but that's it. I used to watch my movies, because I didn't want to be rude to the people making them, but I stopped a few years ago. I think it's pretty common among actors. It's like listening to your own voice, but multiplied by a million.

I'm the most un-diva-ish person you'll meet. I'm never rude to people and I am always on time.

I don't want to be rude, but I'm not that social. When I say, 'I never go out,' I mean, 'I never go out.'
