I played maybe one and a half games of Little League. The whole atmosphere of anxious parents and more anxious children was just too much for me.

[On being an actor] .nothing more than a worker in a service occupation . It's like being a waiter or a gas station attendant, but I'm waiting on 6 million people in a week if I'm lucky.

I think parenting is a huge responsibility. It was in my time when I was growing up and there still continues to be that responsibility.

I've never wanted to be the boss.

I think you have to be very careful with effects that they don't overpower the story with the visual element.

The basic skill of an actor is, in fact, empathy, and that's maybe not a skill, it's a disposition. I am an assistant storyteller. I enjoy feeling useful to a team effort. It's my way of finding a use for myself, a utility in this world.

I was never that much a focus of interest in my career. I'm aware of that now, which doesn't give me a lot of pleasure.
