I didn’t know that it was going to launch a quote-unquote comedic career. I just wanted to do anything other than wait tables.

Don't wait for your break, make your break. Go make it happen for yourself.

Knowing that I'm not a model and I'm never going to be has relieved me of the pressure of looking good. If you don't establish yourself as McDreamy then you don't have to live up to it.

Never trust a man whom you know to have acted like a scoundrel to others, whatever friendliness he may profess to feel towards yourself, however plausible he may be, or however kindly he may behave; be sure that, the moment he has anything to gain by so doing, he will "throw you over."

Actors put ourselves in awkward positions all the time.

You're happy that people are seeing your work. As for the critics, it really hurts when they knock you.

The idea of doing stand-up is terrifying to me.
