Because I'd only done theater, that's really what I thought most of my life would be. I always figured that movies would be a part of it at some point. I didn't know how or when.

I wouldn't mind having another shot at doing comedy, but I'm not sure that's the way I'd want to go.

I'm not sure I always feel like I'm in the seat. Sometimes I'm only holding on by one hand and flying out behind the roller coaster. I don't know anybody who doesn't feel that way.

I will be always grateful to NBC.

You get to the middle of a take that's going really well and the camera will run out of film. They have to stop you, apologize and then you've got to get things going all over again.

In my first film, I was a basketball player. Like every good actor, I lied when they asked me if I could play.

For a lot of people, if they're lucky, it begins with somebody who recognizes something in them.

I don't care about the money. I just need, as an actor, to do as many different things that I can to make me feel good about myself.

When you walk on the set, whatever it is, you commit yourself to the job. You're committing yourself to doing the best you can do with it, no matter what you feel about it, and that never changes.

I have so many people who still talk to me about The Long Kiss Goodnight, about that being one of their favorite movies, and it really was a fun movie.

In independent film you tend to have stories that involve more of a community, and the smaller characters are important to the story.

Pose your questions to people and you will get countless useless answers.

Somehow the thought she might be next wasn't nearly as terrifying as the realization he was gone.

I don't think of all the misery but of the beauty that still remains.

To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.

I think fashion can always date, but I think if a woman has elegance, she doesnt date.

People may think I'm wildly obnoxious.

No woman wants to see herself too clearly.

I don't think anyone expected me to get the BAFTA. The bookies didn't have me down. It's definitely made a huge difference in my career, but I don't dwell on it.

Our pleasures are short, and can only charm at intervals; love is a method of protraction our greatest pleasure.

People who know the state of emptiness will always be able to dissolve their problems by constancy.
