I’ve travelled a huge amount, but almost all of it has been through work. I spent five years stationed in London in the special services of the American Air Force, producing and directing shows for the troops, which I absolutely loved. Larry Hagman Read Quote
As J.R. I could get away with anything – bribery, blackmail and adultery. But I got caught by cancer. I do want everyone to know that it is a very common and treatable form of cancer. I will be receiving treatment while working on the new ‘Dallas’ series. Larry Hagman Read Quote

It’s my firm intention to whop cancer into submission and I truly believe I’ve given myself the best start possible by radically overhauling my diet and by staying true to my motto, which is: Don’t worry, be happy, feel good.

If I really had to pinpoint my happiest days out of the United States, I’d choose those Fifties military days in Britain, particularly my time in South Ruislip. I had a ball. Larry Hagman Read Quote

I’d like to play Matt Damon’s daddy. He’s a wonderful actor, I really admire him, and I’d like to play his dad one day. Larry Hagman Read Quote
There are very little things in this life I cannot afford and patience is one of them. Larry Hagman Read Quote
I’m sure it is, I’m not for any kind of war, we’ve been engaged in several wars since the second world war and we lost in Korea, we lost in Vietnam, they are political wars, they have nothing to do with any real threat, nor does this one. Larry Hagman Read Quote
