It's hard to maintain a sense of dignity in an audition. I have done so many auditions where I've put it out there and have been met with that kind of blank stare - "Great! Thanks! OK! Great work! Thanks for coming in!" At the door I'm thinking, 'What the hell am I doing with my life?'

There's an old saying in Hollywood: It's not the length of your film, it's how you use it.

There's a sense here in L.A. that everybody's aware of everybody all the time. It's funny but we choose it. People who are here want to be here, including me.

It was a mixed blessing to have famous parents. It was tough to go to auditions and be bad, since I couldn't be anonymous.

I have not been an easygoing guy. I think it's called bipolar manic depression. I've got a rich history of that in my family.

I'm very interested in the early American history, the time when the country came together.

Success doesn't necessarily mean happiness.
