Alan Alda : (6) " It’s very important for us to see that science is done by people, not just brains but whole human beings, and sometimes at great cost. " - Alan Alda " I’ve never tried to manipulate my image. " - Alan Alda " Musicals are hard for me because I got thrown out of the glee club in high school, because I couldn’t sing in tune at the time. I can sing in tune now, but I have to work really hard on it to make sure that I don’t exercise one of my great talents, which is the ability to sing in three keys at the same time. " - Alan Alda " No matter how big the audience is going to be. I’m interested in doing things that are fun. " - Alan Alda " Here’s my Golden Rule for a tarnished age: Be fair with others, but keep after them until they’re fair with you. " - Alan Alda " It’s not an epitaph. I felt I could look back at my life and get a good story out of it. It’s a picture of somebody trying to figure things out. I’m not trying to create some impression about myself. That doesn’t interest me. " - Alan Alda
