ADD QUOTES
- Leonard: (on acting) The door is not completely closed. Obviously, I said a couple of years ago that I was retiring and here I am talking about a performance that I just gave. There are certain special situations that come along that can intrigue me. This one did. It's nice to get off the couch and throw the clothes on and a little makeup and go back to work every once in a while. I still enjoy it.
  Edit Share Hide
- Leonard (At Comic-Con refering to Trek 11): This is really going to be a great movie, and I don't say things like that lightly.
  Edit Share Hide
- Leonard: (To Sixpage.com about his choice of obese photographic subjects) They are interested in fat liberation. Their self-esteem is strong. They will tell you that too many people suffer because the body they live in is not the body you find in the fashion magazines.
