Actors are inherently self-centered.

Actors, writers, directors - that triumvirate of creativity - we have to rely and trust each other to be able to get to the final product.

Mixing humor and politics is something that works.

Let me demonstrate. When you greet a friend this is the duration of the kiss that's acceptable. "Hi, good to see you - yeah." When you make a mistake and stay too long at the lips, this is how long it is. "Hi, how are you? Good to see you." And that's what happened. It was like, "Uh-oh, what was that? Oh."

There's this notion that in order to draw attention and to be considered for roles I want to be considered for, you need a certain amount of notoriety.

In order to be an actor you really have to be one of those types of people who are risk-takers and have what is considered an actor's arrogance, which is not to say an arrogance in your personal life. But you have to be the type of person who wants the ball with seconds left in the game.

I intend to do more directing TV.
