The only reason why I acted in school was because of the community, like I was in the chorus of every play, I was never really the lead.

I've always loved those movies where somebody thinks they want something, and then they realize that the thing they really want is right in front of them.

To me, television is one of the most exciting things going on right now, as far as content goes. Some of these shows that are on television are better than any of the movies out there.

I used to make fun of my friends who had BlackBerries. And I know that the expression CrackBerry has been going around, but now I fully understand it. I'm actually addicted to a piece of machinery, and that's really embarrassing

People have a sense of humor, even if it's not a good one, and everybody has stakes.

I have no problem with people seeing me as the nice guy. I hope they don't see me as just the nice guy.

To be an actor and a director, I actually felt it helped me tremendously to be in the scenes of The Hollars, because as you can see, they're very intimate, very intense scenes. You don't want to break the actor's character and you don't want to break their momentum, so as the actor, I tried not to call cut as much as I could, and almost make it feel like a play, just set this environment where these amazing actors could do what they wanted to do.
