I grew up watching PBS and wanting to be a part of it, just like HBO.

You can't make people who you want them to be. That was a hard lesson for me.

I feel, as a person, very uninteresting.

It's your job as an actor to fill out the blanks. I love doing that. To fill in the bones.

I'm not a video game guy. I would rather throw around a football.

One of the great things that you should never do that I learned from John Malkovich is to never judge your characters.

For the record, if you're not a stage actor, climbing onto Broadway and tackling something like David Mamet is not an easy thing to do.
