Generally, I have to be able to get the lines out of my mouth without making a mistake before I go to sleep.

As I get older and I get more of this dialogue and I lose more and more brain cells, it really does become the most difficult part of the job!

Im thinking of going into rehab. Im not addicted to anything, but I think its good way to jumpstart an acting career.

I don't think everybody wanted to be on [new Star Trek series] . I certainly didn't.

I didn't really watch the show [Star Trek]. I still haven't seen about 150 of them. So I didn't really think of them too much in terms of episodes. I thought of them as kind of one long seven-year episode.

The kid in the episode [of Tales From The Darkside ] was played by Christian Slater! He was all of about 12 or so, but I've run into Christian many times since then, and he always does his line from Tales From The Darkside whenever he sees me.

Earl Mills is probably the best role I've ever been given in a film. And it was a great experience to work with Halle [Berry] and Klaus Maria Brandauer, an Austrian actor who's a hero of mine. Martha Coolidge directed the movie [Introducing Dorothy Dandridge], giving me another shot, and it was an amazing experience.
