Quotes
"I want to be on set and die hearing those words: Where’s Peter?
"I knew Henry Fonda was my father, but I didn’t know who I was. They all thought of me as Henry Fonda’s son. Unfortunately for them, they never got to know me.
"I always seemed to disappoint them. They expected me to be different than Henry or exactly like Henry. I was neither.
