I'll instinctively know that I identify with a character.

I lost my virginity when I was 14. And I haven't been able to find it.

Actually, I have an interest in finishing my Ph.D., but I just know I never will.

I had a fear that I'd be typecast, but I don't really have that fear anymore.

What I liked about Mulder was his quality of not caring what other people thought of him. He was very independent. He wasn't interested in women. I liked that. He had kind of an intellectual quest, but not a sexual quest. That was the challenge of Mulder. Here was a guy that got almost sexually excited about aliens. And I wanted to be able to do that!

People are really much more respectful than they're made out to be and much more discerning about the fact that I'm not the character I play.

If you're smart, you'll always be humble. You can learn all you want, but there'll always be somebody who's never read a book who'll know twice what you know.
