I don't think life owes me anything and the business doesn't owe me anything. The only way to approach it is by working hard and loving what you do. If you do that and have faith, maybe you will get lucky. I mean that sincerely and specifically. I truly believe that no professional career in the arts is capable without a healthy dose of luck.

There is a peak and valley to careers and that includes fame. If you are lucky to ride this wave of fame to a plateau - it won't last there. I guess it is just a blue-collar work ethic that I was raised with.

I don't really relax. When I sleep, I relax.

I think naturally, if you're an actor, there's a high level of assertiveness that you need to have to survive this business. There's boldness in being assertive, and there's strength and confidence.

When the sun is shining, make hay, because it would be sunset on my career at some point, and when it is, I want to be exhausted.

Being from a divorced family almost felt like a scarlet letter at times. And I denied it for a long time.

I enjoy doing comedy for the fact that you go to work and you laugh. That's a good combination.
