I quit flying years ago. I don't want to die with tourists.

When I was coming up, if you were on a TV show, that meant something was wrong with your career. Now it means something's right with your career.

Every character I play is me, always has been.

I've really dreamed of doing television. All of us do television, coming up. But when I was coming up, television was a black hole for actors. Now, television has a certain cache. Now everybody wants to be on TV because they're doing adult dramas. If you're an actor, it's like, "Well, get me on television," because it's the only place you can do it and also make a living at it. If my kids need shoes, I better do a TV show because I damn sure don't make any money with independent films.

The ones that work out really and ones that become something to the audience, those are the most important people.

Somewhere along the line we stopped believing we could do anything. And if we don't have our dreams, we have nothing.

They always say 'Is there going to be a sequel to Bad Santa?' and you know, I mean, a long time ago they would talk about, you know, we're going to do a sequel to that but it was never serious. And they said 'Would you do it?' and I said out of all the movies I've done, that was a lot of fun, and maybe I would do a sequel if it ever came up and it made sense, but I said I don't think that's ever going to happen.
