I like dogs, but I have more respect for cats.

I like pizza and I like cheeseburgers a lot and I like Chicago food a lot.

I always thought, if you're gonna do TV, you want to play a straight, solid, pillar-of-the-show kind of guy.

I'm a grinding actor. That's how I've always viewed myself. You go from one job to the next.

I think a lot of people are very good, but I don't think anybody could do my rhythm. I was thinking, "If you want my rhythm" - and when I was writing, I was writing them for myself - "why am I watching another actor doing what I should be doing?" It was just a really unpleasant experience.

I got really into writing plays. I did that for years and years and got some produced and didn't like it as much when I wasn't able to control it.

We didn't make money but we never lost money. We'd sit around Times Square with fliers, walk around the Village and try and get people to come. Now you'd just tweet it, but that was the beginning of emails, or the beginning of me doing emails - I'm sure there were people in 1986 who were doing emails.
