From there, I tried out for a community theatre play, joined an improv group... it all started opening up.
Every time I do a movie where it gets physical, I say never again.
For some reason and I don't know why, but I don't think that I'm funny in California. So I always want to do my movies east somewhere.
I could never be James Bond.
I've always been the guy who doesn't necessarily get it with women. A woman would have to say, 'I like you, I want to go out with you, you can ask me.' And still I would question it. Did she mean it?
Teachers have a chance to mold someone, inspire them. I hope all teachers realize that.
I'm not a Hollywood guy.
I try to connect with the everyday, every guy.
I never played a musical instrument growing up but I knew kids who did and took it very seriously.
I'm not a gay man, but I will say this: I get it now. I know what all the hype is about.
Just me onstage with a mike having an intimate relationship with the audience. I don't get nervous for that. I just get excited.
I never played music, but it's an important thing ... the studying, the inspiration.
My favorite movie of all time is 'Rocky.'
You've got to go after your dreams. If you don't make an effort, nothing's ever going to change.
