FROM THE ACTOR PLAYING DOCTOR IN M*A*S*H

Who would you say inspired you most in your life?

Well, I think my wife [Arlene] has the most. I know this sounds sentimental, but it’s really true that I think I have three birthdays. I have the one I was born on. Then when we got married, that began a new life for me. And my life with her has been far richer, more humanizing than it would’ve been if we hadn’t.

And you’ve been married a long time.

For 50 years this year. And the third birthday I celebrate is October 19th when I was brought back to life in Chile.
