In my freshman year in high school, I went to the only public high school in Boston with a theatre program.

A lot of kids do look up to us. But there are just as many elderly people to put us down.

Every job in Hollywood is a risk. You don't know, when you sign a contract, if something is going to pop, you don't know whether this or that network is going to support your show. You just show up and do the best work you can do, gravitate towards the best material, you know, and try to make the right choices. And the rest of it is a roll of the dice.

I love food shows: Anthony Bourdain, Iron Chef, Chopped, you name it.

For young filmmakers, Saw is a perfect film. It doesn't cost the GNP of almost every country of the world.

We're entertainers, while people want us to be gods.

When you grow up in a city like Boston, where I grew up, a lot of kids became criminals or cops. I never really had a bad take on cops other than I hate when there's one behind me on the highway.
