MINI BIO:
Joseph Wiseman was a Canadian actor who has played uncompromising and humorless villains for more than 30 years. His crook in "Detective Story" and the title character from "Dr. No" were only two of some memorably-etched portraits. But his bad men became less rooted in reality with the passing years, and he did most of his best work in the theater.

Joseph Wiseman Quotes:
Carmish:
You're a stranger in Damascus. I can tell by your beard. And what each stranger hungers to see first is the Tinted Wall. Only a stone's throw away, the Tinted Wall! Let Carmish take you, for as Carmish is known to say, grab hold of the day - who knows if the night will ever come?
Jacob Schpitendavel: I need your help, Louis Minsky. My daughter will not be welcome in my home if she stays the night to dance upon your son's stage. There is a train in 51 minutes. You must tell your son to see she is on it.
Louis Minsky: You see this chair? Tell it to dance. See if it listens. That's how much my Billy listens to me.
Fernando: This is all very disorganized.
