Movie studios aren't making too many dramas anymore; they're in the superhero business. Material for television is much, much stronger for actors now.

I was the kid who read a lot and who was academic, and who was more of an indoor person than an outdoor person. I would win the summer reading contest at the library.

I've always wanted to go where the work was or where I was wanted. The idea that it can be planned is one I let go of a long time ago.

People talk about generating my own work, but I don't really know how to go about that. There are certainly some roles in the theater I'd like to play but I don't know if I'll ever get to do it.

If you ask anybody about their life, usually the first thing they talk about is how their wife is doing, how their kids are, they don't usually say "My job, my job, my job". It's really true. It's usually about your family.

What gives you pleasure and joy? Let those be the things that lead you forward in life.

I like the excitement you get at touching another human being when you're acting with them and then having a little spark and not knowing what is going to happen in between you.
