1. “I don't know about it. There was a time in my life, and I have witnesses because it sounds out, I could with steel sites hit 600 yards. Whether I can right now at 85, probably not, but who knows? I get the dragonoff down in warm weather. I'll give it a shot. Horrible, horrible metaphor.”

2. “Knowing the right people, or is it just working on your skills and becoming better and better at what you're doing? He said, my dear boy, none of the above. Develop very strong jaw muscles, learn how to bite on and not let go. I said, You're telling me it's just pure tenacity. His answer was yes. If you're a monk outside the gates with a beggar's bull and you stay out there long enough, they'll finally get sick of seeing you open the gates and let you in.”

3. “I would give them both the lessons I learned from Sir Lawrence and from my dad, which is if you love it, make it your life, right along with that, be tenacious. Learn that the most important thing about being knocked down is getting back up. And if you can put yourself in the spot where you say, I don't care how many times I get knocked down, I'm getting back up every single time and going after what I want. That's the answer. I mean, again, I'm at a bar with Lawrence Olivier, who created the National Theater of England, who was the biggest movie star in the world, was the most creative stage actor in the world and director. He'd done everything. My question to him was, what is it that you need to make it in this business? Is it timing, right place at the right time? Is it contacts? No.”

4. “Trusting that your body will do the right thing. So when you're riding, say, a big Harley, I can tell you this axiomatically. When you're riding a big Harley and you're going 25 miles an hour, you ride it like any other motorcycle. If it's a street bike, just remember the following dictum front brake until you're really sure about how it works only. Stay away from the rear brake. Dirt bike the opposite. If you're going under twenty five miles an hour, if you're going under twelve miles an hour. You keep the power on slipping the clutch, and you will go where your head looks. If you look down at the ground, I guarantee you you're going to dump the bike.”

5. “That I realized with relationships is a lot of people who were in love with each other had to discover whether they liked each other. And what I just covered with Carol was I liked her better than anybody I knew. Even to this day, we're like agoraphobic hermits. We have no problem. I don't need the company of anybody. Anyway, that friction zone is kind of what came out of the pandemic. And it's not big heavy duties. You know what friction zone is? Friction zone is where you want to be with a big heavy motorcycle like a Harley Davidson to drive it slowly. You're slipping the clutch, constantly slipping the clutch with a little bit of power on. So the metaphor for that just anyway.”

6. “And I said correctly, it's not up to me. I'm not a, I can say Indian giver because I've got Comanche blood himself. I don't mind using the word. If I give something, it's yours. It's not mine. You can rip up those pages and wipe your ass with it. So she said, well, I'm going to publish it, self-publish. So that was room service. That's not that book. And then during the pandemic, there was no acting happening anywhere. And then right after that, I had a brief period of time when I could work. And then the strike happened. But during the pandemic, which was about two years long, all I could really do, aside from workout and hang out with Carol, was write poetry. Now, wouldn't you know if I would call it observations? I leave it to other people to say whether that's poetry or not. I don't know. But the thing about the pandemic.”

7. “Real deep ideas and feelings. And also because, as I said, I grew up with probably, but I don't want to know for sure the myth that I'm directly related to Lord Byron, who had a club foot, was crippled, but swam the hellisponce and fought in Greeks war of liberation from Turkey. And he did all this stuff and was, you know, an outrageous cocksman. And mainly he was a poet. So I've lived with the belief that I have that in me. But what happened with Carol was I wrote a poem to her every Christmas Hanukkah time. And at a certain point on her 50th anniversary, she said, I want to publish these. Is it okay with you?”

8. “It was the weirdest world because it was a world where there was zero fitness in that way. And yet they were the outrageous athletes. I mean, like stuff that triple back black belts and shotokan couldn't even dream about doing. These people did easily.”

9. “And I said, What are you? He said, I'm Latvian. That was the first time it ever dawned on me that these parts of Russia that I thought were kind of along with Putin were actually Russian were more like Ukraine. They had their own identity, their own sense of who they were, and it meant something. It certainly did to Nuria. He was in some ways the best physical shape of any human being I've ever been around. I watched him go down a flight of long stairs on his hands. I mean, He would invite me to come and watch the New York City ballet work out. And Makarova, who was the best premium of ballerina in the world at the time, I would watch her on point, not coming down from point, spinning one direction, three directions, four back and forth, chain smoking two camels at the same time.”

10. “I remember at one point we were down in the basement of this place called Toskas, a bar in New York. I mean, I'm sorry, in San Francisco. They had a pool. And we were shooting pool and drinking. Me in a minor way, he in a major way. I remember one point I said to him, Well, you Russians can really hold your vodka, and he stopped, got really angry, and looked at me, and he said, I am not Russian.”

11. “Well, I was dancing with a guy named Maddox, who was phenomenal. And I remember one point I said, how do I get better at this? It was when I quit dancing almost altogether. He said, stop acting, stop doing martial arts, stop wrestling, working out, don't do anything else, just dance. You want to get better. You're at that point right now, and I quit dancing. I ran into Nuriav while we were doing the right stuff in San Francisco, and New York City Ballet had moved to San Francisco for the year, and I met him and he had seen Urban Cowboy. He told me that I was a much realer, better cowboy than John Travolter would ever be. And by the way, John Travolta pretty much sucked as a dancer too. So”

And what it is about her, I don't know, and maybe I don't want to know. But even with, he's no longer alive. I remember when she and I first met Freddie Fields, who was the toughest, hardest-ass Asian Hollywood, old school has ever seen. Within 10 minutes of meeting her, he desperately wanted her approval. I've never seen anybody around her who doesn't want her to say you're okay. What is that about her she comes from I think now it's thirty thirty. That is true about her. People want her to say they're okay. What that quality is in her, I don't know, but it's there, that's for sure. She”

She said, okay, Earl, I'll buzz in. And then looking at the TV and I'm hearing the front door open, and I'm hearing Earl say, whoa, you look hot tonight, and I hear Carol say, listen, Earl, an old friend of my brother's just dropped by. I haven't seen him in a long time. I'm not going out with you tonight. You can see the emotion I'm filled with right now.”

15. “That Saturday night, I think it was, and she said, okay. So I get down to her apartment. She's got makeup on. She's all dressed up. And she said, oh, I've got a date tonight. But you know where the fridge is? And there's the TV. And so knock yourself out.”

16. “So, the next morning we had breakfast and we played in the snow some more. And I was going to say goodbye to her. And I thought, I'm not going to even try to hug her and kiss her because if I do this and she does one of those pole ways, my whole world will collapse. How I knew that? I don't know. So I said I had a really good time and I held it in my hand. I shook her hand goodbye. And then for the next week, I would open my, I had a predictably a little black book and I would open it up and I would call a phone number and a young woman would answer hello, hello, and I wouldn't say anything and I would just hang up. And I went through one phone. And finally, I thought, who are you kidding? You want to see her? That's who you want to see. So I called her up and I told her my TV was broken and there was something I wanted to watch on television.”

17. “And for whatever reason, I turned to Carol and I said, I think I want to sit through this and watch it again. She said, yeah, me too. So we sat through the whole movie again, not even touching, and the movie came to an end. And in that period of time, it was like magical. We walked out of the theater, and there was probably half a foot of snow everywhere. So we went out and we played in the snow. It was getting late. And Carol said, I was doing a play, but I was off that night. She said, you want to spend the night? And I said, yeah. Oh yeah. So I went over and she cooked spaghetti and meatballs and we had beer. And at the end of dinner, she went to the bedroom, came out with a pillow, threw it on the couch, and said, this turns into a bed. There are blankets on it. Have a good night. Went back into the bedroom, shut the door, and went to sleep. I went, okay.”

18. “In a movie theater in New York. The girl I've been kind of not really living with, but semi living with off and on, and I'd broken up and she just tried to kill herself. And I had a friend who now is teaching school in Iraq of all places. His name is Jeff Siggins. Anyway, he called me up and he said, we're going to the movies, Murray Hill Cinema, me and a group of people, you want to come with us. And I said, sure. Carol was one of them. I'd never met her before. I sat next to her in the movie theater. And I just felt these didn't touch her or anything. I just felt these waves of, I don't know what it was, but some, and I'd fallen in lust, probably at least a couple thousand times in my life, and pursued that, you know, with full vigor. But I never really fallen in love. Anyway, so the movie came to an end. And everybody got up to leave.”

20. “And so he brought me at one point. I remember he brought me to work out with those guys. I wouldn't hit palm trees with my hands or anything like that, but they had heavy bags and stuff like that too. And Fred told me that God gave me a right hook. And I said, yeah, I know that part. But Fred and I went across the border illegally into what was then Burma up in the Golden Triangle. Three Pagoda Pass. Yeah, so I had adventures in Thailand and saw a lot of Muitai. Yeah.”

22. “And we lost locations. And so my week and a half or two week job wasn't going to happen for at least two months. So I said to them, why don't you just keep me here in the hotel rather than spend first class plane tickets back and forth back? And bring Carol over and we can go to Phuket and have fun. So we did that. But while I was there, the movie is kind of a sad movie to me because two of my friends who were in the movie who played much bigger parts than me are no longer alive. One was Gregory Hines, who I loved, and Gregory I knew from martial arts, from doing Korean martial arts. He's the only person I ever saw on his passport, you know, where you put occupation, his said tap dancer. He was amazing. He died of liver can”

And if you know the lesser vehicle Buddhism, you become an adult at 60. It's the end of the fifth cycle. So there's still hope for 12 years. Yeah.”

25. “That's so true. I mean, it's like with martial arts, you've done them enough, so I know I'm talking to somebody, the two of you guys understand this. Okay, so I'm going to Thailand to do this TV show, White Lotus, that I can't really talk about it because they're very secretive. But I'm going to be in Thailand. So I called up a friend. And just because I love the word. I mean, it's so cool. Krabi Krabong. Little babies probably like to say it too. But it's a Thai martial art and it's the weapons side of Muay Thai. When you're really good at it, you use razor sharp double swords. But when you begin it, it's just re-tanned sticks. And what I want to do in Thailand is not learn Krabi Krabong or be taught secret moves or any of that. I just want someone to show me the absolute.”

They're as good at it as anybody on the fucking planet Earth, and they're going to teach you. And the one thing I will say, and hopefully whoever is hearing this will take it to heart, there's part of me that's really a good student. And here's the part of me that's really a good student. I'm willing to fall on my ass in front of people. The embarrassment of screwing up and being clumsy and falling on my ass in front of people is not great enough to keep me from doing it. And that's the trick to being a good student.”

28. “So I said, are we going to attend and jump? He said, no, you already told me you're a static line jumper. We'll put a two by four on a Cessna. We'll go up. We'll use the 2x4 to launch ourselves out on the stride of the wing. Hang on to it. He said, and you'll go first. I said, what will you do? He said, I'll come after you. He said, just you jump off and establish a hard arch. And he showed me how to do that. And I said, okay, but then what'll I do? And he said, well, I'll jump off, catch up with you. I want you to panamine, but don't do it. Panamine pulling your rip cord and you'll yell to me what your altitude is. We'll go out at hopefully fifteen thousand. And when you hit 3,000, you don't panama anymore. You actually pull the ripcord and pump air into the cells of the parachute, and that's the way it'll work.”

Come over to my house tomorrow afternoon. I'll hang him from my porch. I'll teach you malfunctions and major malfunctions and how to deal with them. And we'll go jumping. And I said, Why should I trust you? And he said, because I'm four times world champion, I'm the only person allowed to videotape the Golden Knights. If you know anything about jumping, videotaping skydivers is easily the most dangerous part because of all the stuff you can go on.”

30. “About it. He said, Do you have any idea who that was? And I said, No. He said, that was James Stewart. I said, James Stewart, Jimmy Stewart, the actor? He said, no, like Jim Stewart, dive master emeritus at Scripps Institute. Jim Stewart, who wrote the syllabus for the SEAL teams, Jim Stewart, who's the only person who can sign the chit that says you're allowed to dive in the Antarctica, Jim Stewart, whose Nally card is number one. And Jock Costello said, is arguably the greatest scuba diver they ever lived. That's who's going to teach you and certify you. And he did. I mean, so, I mean, it's again the first dump of skill acquisition. I'm out here in the summertime, and I'm talking about what does it feel like to be a bird? Because when I was in the service, I never free fall. I never did free fall like him and like SF and Seals do at all.”

And for whatever reason, I don't know if it was in his, what about him saying that to me, but I came to attention? And I said, why, sir? And he got a big grin and he looked at me and he said, okay, your Army Airborne and Marine, which one? And I said, Marine Corps, sir. And he laughed, and he said, I'm here with my girlfriend. I'm staying in that room. You show up tomorrow and give me the next six days of your life. Show up tomorrow with coffee at eight forty five, not before, not after, and I'll teach you how to scuba dive and certify you. And then he walks out of the bar. And the owner of the bar, just Scott John Ireland, walks over to me, and I tell him.”

That's for real. If people ask me, am I a good shot with a handgun? My honest answer is above average. A lot? No. Above average. But I'm a really good instructor. I can teach anybody probably to expert level how to shoot a handgun. Am I a good shot with a rifle? Yes, I am. Can I teach people well how to? No, I mean the world's worst teacher. I don't do anything right. I don't get a consistent spot well and I don't do any of this. I just been doing it since I was so young. I just do it and it works out.

What I meditate on are peace, clarity and focus. And when I say focus, I do mean physical focus, like a gunsight. I'll pick a tiny spot on the ceiling. And as I'm holding my breath, I'll focus on that, but try to find the place of meditation that just lets me live there. And I started off with doing a minute, I think I was doing a minute 15. Anyway, right now I'm doing a minute 40. Six, yeah, performs free dive, and it'll tell you that of record my longest breath hold is four minutes and 15 seconds.”

38. “Pissed off, so he said I was suggest that one of your meditations be peace. In the other direction. So at the end of this course, he gave us this thing. I've got it on my phone. And it's what it is, is six breath holds. You decide how long you want them to be, and they shouldn't be killer, but they should be long enough that they're difficult because Erl once said, keep telling yourself I'm getting stronger and better with and because of the stress. There are six, and with diminishing amounts of rest between each one. And I do those three times a week. Erwin says, don't do them in succeeding days because it's probably not good for you, and so I don't. But I do these breath holds, and I started doing them here while I got the part of, and I remember one point.”

39. “Yeah, so this is what Irwin believes. In a breath hold where you feel stress. Because the stress you ultimately feel when you're holding your breath is you're afraid you're going to die. You're not because at a certain point against your will, your body will take over and force you to breathe. So he believes that if you have one thing to think about and meditate on during that breath hold, you can rewire your central nervous system. Now that sounds like woo-woo stuff to a lot of people, but for me it actually worked. So he said, Scott, what kind of conversations do you have? Are they basically any one thing I said? Yeah, they're minor being pissed off, being angry at somebody took my parking place or making up this confrontation that I may never have with a casting person.”

How do I get from here to there? What's 2 plus 2 equal, that kind of thing? Or it's a conversation that you're writing the script and you're delivering to yourself.”

41. “Because I'm thinking, how do I play somebody who talks to manatees? And I don't want to. I want to have to technically figure that out as an actor. That's going to be way too much work. So sign me up for this thing with this guy named Erwan Lecour who does natural movement. You probably know who he is. I do. He also would concur that the diaphragm is the most important muscle. He's all about breathing. And the course was all about breathing and meditation.”

42. “No, I guess I kind of do. I was thinking when I was doing Eugene the Marine, all I would do is actually I did do about 60 pace. I would do baby fit in the morning. That would be pretty much it because I knew I had so much work to do during the day. And a lot of it was super physical, was martial arts stuff with training knives and stuff like that. So I'm not compelled to work out every day, but at least every other day. And the diaphragm stuff I use because like I say, I'm super lazy as an actor. So I got this part in Bad Monkey. I'm playing this shaman. I get the part and then I freak out.”

43. “I like forget exactly how the diaphragm feels. So I'll invert myself and then drop my heels over so that they're against the wall really gently, as gently as possible. And why I'm doing that is that can then take all of the tension out of my shoulders and my hands and everything. And then I just start breathing deeply. If you're in that position, you won't be able to vertically breathe. You will not be able to.”

44. “30 seconds from now. I'm 85. At some point, that's going to go. And if it does, that's, I'll deal with it. Those are some of the stuff that I do, aside from the breathing stuff. I used to think the most important muscles in the body were the butt, the hamstrings, and the quads. Lower body, big muscles. And they're not unimportant at all. But now I believe that easily the most important muscle you have control. I mean, I guess yogis have control over their heart, so that would work. I don't. I can slow my heart rate down, and that's pretty much it. So the most important muscle in my body that I can have control over for sure is the diaphragm. Nothing else even gets close. And that feed-up thing over there I use.”

45. “So now also, if I drink too much tequila, I'm going to really feel it for two or three days. All that stuff. The one place that I'm lucky, I'm not bragging is really true, is my reaction to him. I'm still as quick as I used to be. But what I realized is that could turn into”

46. “Working out. If I want to do, I used to do workout with like dumbbells and barbells and stuff like that just for the chuckles of it every now and then I'll pick up some dumbbells just to play around and say, can I still do this? But I avoid that because I'm 85 and I don't want to mess with my joints and tendons and ligaments. And I've discovered that bands work just as well and they're way more merciful on your body. I mean at one point you talk about being 85 I absolutely take into account the fact that I'm and the other thing I realized is that already at 85 my recuperation time is way longer than it used to be. If I do an all-nighter now, it'll take me three days to get back. When I was the Marine Corps, I'm not exaggerated. I could get 15, 20 minutes of sleep, just tying myself to an armored personnel.”

47. “But yeah, right, back on our exercise, prison pushups. So do 10 of those, 10 of those wait a minute, back and forth, and I'll do five rounds. So inside of five rounds, I've done 100 KB swings and 100 push-ups. Then I'm pretty much done. With like specific”

48. “Or 52. 52. Okay. I stopped doing the 52 because I screwed up my muscle. I'm learning about more muscles in my body with my old age. But anyway, I do 10 kettlebell swings inside a minute, 10 more inside a minute. Wait a minute. Get on the ground. Do push-ups. Depends on how ambitious I am. I'll either do. I rarely do straight push-ups. I'll usually do fist push-ups or open finger fist push-ups. Try finger pushups or these, which are...”

49. “I don't even know if I could do that. So that's one thing I'll do. The other is A really brief warm up when I say brief warm up 30 seconds of running in place, swinging my arm, just putting some synovial fluid in my joints. And then what I've been doing a lot is quick and dead. For me, that's just 10 kettlebell swings, either with a 32 pound, I don't know the KGs, in the 30s. Plus 16.”

50. “Like today, I didn't do that many because I was thinking about you guys coming over here and I didn't want, so I just did 12. But usually I do 60. When it's warm out, I'll use the lawn out there. And it's usually 90 to 100 out.”
