I don't mean to be highfalutin about it, but I try to limit my visibility.

For the last 20 years of my life, I've had the mantra to do amazing parts with amazing people in amazing projects, so I'm attracted to good story, writing and character and good people. That's what I'm always searching for and I don't think that's ever going to change.

I went to a performance of 'The Crucible' at the Guthrie when I was a sophomore in high school, and I knew right away that that's what I wanted to do

Even the small amount of infamy I have makes me uncomfortable - on a personal level and on a professional level.

As an actor, I think a mistake that any storyteller can make is to play the ending.

I have to be careful of what TV shows I choose, particularly ones that have commercials in them, because it's going to be a different kind of television show.

I generally play strong people and scary people.
