Work-do plays, learn your craft, and go to school. Keep working. Nobody is going to give you jobs for going to parties or any of that nonsense. Go out, look around, do things.

I lost 30 pounds to play my character in 'The Mexican,' but people don't take to skinny mafia men, and I don't feel right when I'm thin.

The Sopranos all came down to the writing. I wouldn't have been on for as long as I was if the writing weren't so good.

People don't know and they shouldn't know that you work incredibly hard as an actor.

All writers are vampires.

I just don't think I'm that interesting. I don't think what I have to say is that interesting. To hear me go blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I mean, who... cares?

I've never worked with an actor that I did not like.
