thinking play guy
I was 23, and I was in L.A. while on hiatus [as an understudy] from Biloxi Blues on Broadway. The guy that I'd been studying with had been fired for horsing around on stage with Matthew Broderick, and they were really anxious to get me back into the play. So I was in a great situation, and at the time, I definitely wasn't thinking about television
monday thinking long
I don't remember what script it was, but at the Monday table read, the [opening] teaser didn't work.We went back and had to think of a new teaser, and [after] four hours, five hours, we weren't landing on anything.And it was probably Glen [Charles] who said, "What are we, cowards?" You had to do it, no matter how long it took.

I think very frequently, musicians become a victim of every song they sing. I like all kinds of recreation. It's aggressive. I want to be part of everything.

When you can spell subpoena without thinking about it, that's when you know you've made it.

That's the best way to audition for anything: When your back-up plan is your dream, you know?
cheer two episodes
I had heard about Cheers, of course, but I never watched it. So I watched two episodes, and I was like, "Oh my God. This is really good."
deviants miscellaneous ifs
You have to be deviant if you're going to do anything new.
art purpose collectors
My art has nothing to do with servicing collectors, it's for living, for turning on with.
couple college wings
I didn't hit one three-pointer in college, and a couple of those were right on the college three line. I didn't feel comfortable much outside of 12 to 15 feet. Now, I really feel comfortable from the wing and the corner area out to 18, 19 feet. I'm going to keep working and continue to improve it.
long firsts easy
The first floor could be a restaurant. A good restaurant can survive as long as it has easy accessibility.
