I keep mementos from everything I've done. I've got my cab driver's license from 'Happiness.' I've got a pair of glasses and a belt buckle from playing John Lennon. I've got a pair of sunglasses from playing Andy Warhol... It's all in a box in the garage.

I never lost an argument and my parents assumed I would be a lawyer. They cast me in that role.

I remember thinking, 'I'll audition just once and if it doesn't work out I'll never think about it ever again.'

I thought if I went somewhere where I didn't know anybody and they didn't know me I could start all over again.

You get ideas from other people all the time.

Matt Weiner is an amazing writer. He's one of the best, greatest writers that's ever written for television, or just written.

I audition for stuff all the time, and what's weird about it is that one's success rate at auditioning doesn't really change. It's sort of at the same ratio of stuff you audition for to things you land.
