A series is a big deal, and there are a lot of people out there writing stuff that don't know what art is.

My two kids take a lot of my focus, which I'm grateful for.

You mortgage yourself sometimes. You know what you want to do, then you balance it against paying the rent.

The world isn't what you think it is.

It's easy to actually get the ink on the page, but somehow I've gotta find a way to play this. And I have to find a way to emotionally survive playing this.

An actor always wants to sink his teeth into something.

I've never bought a boxed set DVD or anything like that.

As an actor, often you're stuck with these scenes in which a great period of time is in between them - for example, if you do a biopic, it might be a year, it might be a decade, you never know.

I'm only the messenger.

In some ways, what I learned is that you can take a character and breathe with them, and its up to the audience to interpret rather than you putting moral stamp on the character.

I learned a lot about 3D animation from and with my dear friend Michael Hemschoot of Workerstudio. Taught me that I want to play more with animation and image manipulation. Fun stuff!

I'm a competitor. No matter what I'm doing, whether I'm golfing, whether I'm playing indoor soccer with my fiancé - he's not going to get by me. I'm going to try to do whatever I can to win.

They were beautiful nothings

When one writes, there’s the double horror of discovering not only what it is that one so fears but also the triviality of that fear.

Men exist on the planet. We have to deal with them at some point.

Grumbling is the death of love

I know that I was conscious of all the aspects of the war, having had cousins who were in the army, who would send me notes and memorabilia. I began to collect things that they would send me.

I love bad movies, whereas going to the theater for me is a painful experience. I think it's really hard to sit and watch actors do something live and have it not go well.
