Some people are gay. Get over it!

I live my life openly and freely every day anyway, and do what I want to do, but I don't take any great risks.

I find with television, you have to play personality, whereas onstage, everyone talks about "the character," and what you do. It's a very different thing, because stage is much bigger, but on television, for things to come across to the public, I think you have to play a bit of your personality.

Have I ever been the shy retiring type? Never. Not since the day I was born.

I trust the [series] writers when I'm filming, because it's interesting for me to go in every week and see what's going to happen, and the challenge for me as the actor is to make it work.

When I was younger I wanted to be an airline pilot, but that lasted for about 30 seconds.

Desperate Housewives' was a good experience, though, as I got to play the bad guy for once. My only complaint was they had me in a lot of sweaters.
