Definitely true. I've had too much experience with that with the family I grew up in so I don't condone it, but I have an obvious soft spot for Peter so I'm going to stick up for the flawed man--warts and all. His great gifts and talents on screen have brought pleasure to my life. For that I have to thank him.
From the Charlie Rose interview linked above he said he once had this note pinned to a piece of dry cleaning he picked up from the cleaners. He thought it would be comical to have the comment as his epitaph : "It distresses us to return work which is not perfect." I hope his epitaph is years away.

I agree with you.
Thank you.
