Oftentimes, a funny situation is funny because it's uncomfortable or weird. The most memorable stories, or the stuff that you repeat to your friends, it's not like, "Oh, I had a pleasant day, nothing happened on the bus today." It's when strange things happen, when you become uncomfortable or knocked out of your own reality, those are the things that are interesting.

I hear actors complain about being stereotyped, and a lot of the time, you have yourself to blame. Just don't take the part if you feel like it's a stereotypical part for you. You have control over your life. We don't have the old studio system, where you have to do what they tell you.

I really enjoy my time off. If I'm going to go to work, it has to be something I really believe in, or else it's totally tedious.

Hey, I'm just trying to become the Michael Caine/Gene Hackman of my generation.

I don't really get off on the anonymous love of strangers, which I think a lot of actors do. They're lacking something in their own personal lives, so they want the adoration of autographs and all that stuff.

I'm bored by repeating myself, and I would imagine that an audience would be bored by me repeating myself.

Being unprepared makes me nervous. I'm old-fashioned show folk.
