About once a year, I do these long-distance relays with some friends of mine, and it takes about 27 or 28 hours to complete it.

I don't care about sympathy. I care about playing a character who's understandable and clear.

The whole cable-TV original programming just changed the nature of television.

Good and bad are really arbitrary words when it comes to character.

I grew up in the South, so a huge part of our American History education revolved around the Civil War.

Having been trained as a stage actor, and then you go out there and you're on 40,000 acres and you have a horse under you and you're shooting a real gun, you almost don't have to act. It's just really amazing.

I like my work to stand on its own as much as possible.
