Jack Kelly (1) Quotes
  
Kelly: (about his role on Maverick) James Garner was Maverick. I was his brother.
 
Kelly: (about his career) I've been lucky. I know a lot of people running around with more talent than I have who never got to first base. I've done everything--stage, radio, movies; I even studied law for a while--and I never got to first base. Then TV game me the chance for security.
