Most of the time, my favorite drama has comedy in it as well. I think most good dramas have comedy in there. And all of the dramatic actors I look up to are also very funny.

There's no conversation more boring than talking about what it's really like to live in Newport and how the show compares to the real thing. I just don't care.

It's very important to me to love what I do. It was important to me to find a career that I truly enjoy. You can find something that sort of excites you, that's half the battle of life.

Welcome to a life of insecurity and paralyzing self-doubt.

My best jokes are so cheap. All I do is say things sarcastically.

I've had to fight for roles and I've lost a hundred roles, but 'Smoking' and 'Smith' were phone calls. That's the dream.

Handle with care. Probably has Views. Do not attempt to kiss hand.

No holidays, no country.

By the time a man gets well into his seventies his continued existence is a mere miracle.

Ensure compliance and be responsive to the feedback.

If you've got nothing worth dying for, you've got nothing worth living for.

Stupid speaks loudly; he makes noise like pigs! Wise man speaks calmly; he makes sound like quiet lakes!

I've never said flange to a monkey!

I hope to work, support my children and die quietly without pain.

All that glisters is not gold; Often have you heard that told.
