Tom called to wish me luck in the play. He said be good - but not too good!
My deep dark secret is that I was a nerd in school. I liked the theater. I liked to study. I wasn't very good at sports.
I've said before that the common perception that all good actors should be good liars is exactly the opposite; only bad actors lie when they act.
I've been around for so long, people have their perceptions of me: good, bad or indifferent.
There was a period in my life where I went out a lot and I had a really good time. But that period is over.
There is good and evil in each of us, and you can easily be led to the dark side.
I have never felt at any point in my life, good or bad, any ill will ever from the man or woman on the street.
In comedy you have to be willing to not take yourself seriously, you know? I take comedy really seriously, and so to take comedy seriously, you must not, you cannot, ever take yourself seriously.
In my bachelor days, the priority wasn't learning to cook.
I'm no genius, but I'm real smart in one area - I picked the right mate.
I like doing things that are different, unexpected, and where I feel that either the role feels like a natural fit for me or it's a really big swing that I don't know if I'm going to connect on.
It was just one of those quirky, sort of naughty, sort of wild, sort of, you know, drunken things that people will do from time to time.
I learned to focus on what's real rather than imagined; on not letting feelings drive the bus; on being courageous and honest; on putting my total effort into something and not worrying about the result.
I like all of John Carpenter's movies. 'The Thing' is my favorite.
