I feel a strong wakeup call and need to build social connections.

I like television. I still believe that television is the most powerful form of communication on Earth - I just hate what is being done with it.

I played every bad guy in Shakespeare.

I want to bring things up to room temperature, especially poultry, before I cook it because I want it to cook faster so that there's less moisture loss.

I feel like being on Broadway will convince my mother that my theater degree was worth it.

The kitchen's a laboratory, and everything that happens there has to do with science. It's biology, chemistry, physics. Yes, there's history. Yes, there's artistry. Yes, to all of that. But what happened there, what actually happens to the food is all science.

I'm loyal and very good about giving people opportunities.
