Anthony Dean Geary Quotes

  • Genie and I meet each other somewhere out there in the universe, we looked in each others eyes and it was right back. We hadn’t skipped a beat, we hadn’t missed not a second of it. There’s more continuity to that than most anything in my life. The Luke and Laura relationship is as real to me as any I’ve ever had.
  • Many of the scripts that are sent to me are nothing more than Luke Spencer rehashed and I won’t do it. I refuse. [1983]
  • I’ve been called the J.R. of daytime. Seriously, it’s a nice compliment, but I want to know if people ask Larry Hagman how he feels about being the Luke Spencer of nighttime.
  • I was a terrific liar as a child, and I believe my lies. So it’s a natural step into acting.
  • It’s hard to stand in your own shadow. — Tony Geary, on returning to this Luke Spencer role in 1994
  • I never needed or encouraged idolization. The heartthrob routine disgusted me. I fought it every step of the way. You have no idea how awful it was to go on public appearances where literally hundreds of women would scream, “Luke, rape me!
