I dabbled a little bit in acting in high school and then I forgot about it completely. And then at about twenty-five I went to a class. I don't think anybody in my family thought it was an intelligent choice. I don't think anybody thought I'd succeed, which is understandable. I think they were just happy that I was doing something.

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.

You know my feelings: every day is a gift. It's just, does it have to be socks?

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'd love to live in New Orleans. I love the freedom of it - for good and for bad.

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.

I like idiotic comedies.
