It was a perfectly average well- adjusted childhood, not a bit unlike that of millions of other individuals..

I ran around with the other youngsters, hunting, fishing and raising tadpoles and all the rest..

My father started me singing in church..

I once aged 90 years old in one episode..

I have been exposed to a great amount of temptation throughout the course of my career..

I have considered myself a mature actor..

I had fallen in love with California..

I have no aspiration whatsoever to be the next great leading man..

My ambition is peace and perfection..

Star Trek is perhaps the best thing that ever happened to me, in a career sense..

Star Trek has brought so much of what I want within my grasp..

I have deep feelings for the welfare and comfort of others..

The most important influence in my childhood was my father..

You see, I was the son of a baptist minister..
