I think that I am lucky and blessed to have the job that I have. I'm trying to create longevity. If that means that I transition and do different things at different points in my life, then that's fine.

I was always inspired by Sigourney [Weaver]. She's been able to have such beautiful diversity in her career and that's a really impressive thing.

Some of the craziest people I've met, in my life, are some of the most brilliant people I've met. It's almost as if they get bored in their own brain and they have to come up with this craziness to stay interested in life.

Science fiction fans are awesome, they love you so much that they'll watch anything you do, even if it's complete crap. I never dreamed that I would go to conventions and sit down and have coffee with a Klingon. It's so weird, but it's my life.

Horror films and genre films are interesting, because I always look for a deeper meaning or a deeper theme in the film.

Most of the characters I play are heavily engulfed in some sort of fantasy world.

If you can ride through Texas with somebody, which is 700 miles of just straight, flat freeway riding, then you can be friends with them forever.
