There will come a day when the phone doesn't ring as much as it used to.

There's certainly more work for me in TV these days.

I think my being such a nomad let me into acting. I was always having to create a new image whenever we moved.

I don't care. I mean, I've been stupid in the past, and I've learned from that. Some actors actually think about what they're going to talk about during the interview--they read up and meditate and plan quotes and get all inspired. It's very smart, but it's so planned. I never think to do that.

I like the level of fame that I have. You get nice tables in restaurants sometimes, but fame isn't something that I find comfortable.

I can't control how people are going to react. I try not to worry about what I can't control.

I think there's a down-to-earthness with Midwesterners and with people from the Midlands - which is where my family is from - in Ireland.
