I can't claim I'm truly a man's man, I'm just as much of a dork and a crybaby sometimes as anybody else.

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

I feel there’s no need to overstate.

I think the American Western laid down a kind of subject matter that's about following your instinct or following your gut and having a sort of removed quality from your humanity. And I think Clint Eastwood helped to establish that.

I love the long-form format of television. I love being able to develop a character, over a long period of time.

For me, acting is play. It's just play and it's playing make believe really, really well.

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