In the early '90s, when those little art films started coming out, we were introduced to Quentin Tarantino and guys like that, and independent cinema was something that everyone wanted to be a part of.
The luxury of television is that you get more than one shot at who you think the guy is that you're playing.
I'm kind of one of these guys who wants to play everything once before it's all over.
My whole mantra is, "Go big or go home." I don't want to just play a guy who dresses up. I want to play the person who threw down.
The thing that's cool about the recording booth is that it's so perfunctory, so cut-to-the-chase.
I've never been pigeonholed and I've experienced so many different kinds of skin - what man will do and won't do, what you should do and shouldn't do. This is what's exciting about being an actor; where philosophy majors sit in classrooms or write books about human behavior, we're actually acting them out in front of cameras.
So much of my aesthetic was formed by my dad.
You do what you gotta do. This is not heart surgery. I'm not curing cancer. I'm just trying to put my kids through school.
Yeah, it's nice to get paid for therapy rather than having to pay $240 an hour for it.
You can change the circumstances but you can never change man's inner nature.
Well, I love acting, and I love acting quick.
You know, I don't read the blogs, or go on the internet, and I really just don't know what people are saying because... well I guess I'm afraid to.
Season 4 can be deadly for a show that's been a hit show.
There are always great deals of humanity in the characters that have been offered to me.
