Don't forget who your heroes are, what they mean to you, and why they mean that to you.

My interests are not really with television, per se.

You have to like your character, because if you don't, no one else will either.

I’ve learned the most from Randy Harrison. Because of his fantastic imaginary world filled with bizarre friends. He is constantly giving us good advice.

I'm grateful for all the attention because it validates I'm doing something.

I'm straight, but the character was too important to me to muddle his world with my private life. As a nobody, I got away with that deflection. I think it may have helped to introduce Brian as a believable gay man. Maybe not. However it played, it's been out of my hands for a long time.

I started studying at 26. Before that, I never thought of acting as something that I would ever try.
