As an actor, it's great to play a strong leader with a heart of gold.

I'm just really proud of 'Dead Head Fred.'

Groups like the NAACP, The Anti-Defamation League, NOW and GLAAD, will respond to derisive language directed at their constituents. The price paid by those who cavalierly chose to verbally disrespect the dignity of African Americans, Jews, women and homosexuals is steep.

I would love to have a photographic memory. It would come in handy with the rants I'm given on Scrubs... often on short notice!

The idea for actors is to make a living telling stories, so if you can do that, then you’re way ahead of the game.

I just can't afford to get bored, because if you've been blessed with a generous imagination, which a lot of actors have, to be engaged, to be stimulated, is to liberate your imagination.

You go to the hospital your wife's in labor and you're doing the thing, and then it's very disorienting and scary and you beat yourself up and you go through a whole period of 'woe is me' and then you realize that this a gift, this child is the light, and if you can nourish that light and just let it shine, you have an opportunity to get closer to what I think is God.
