I think it's your duty to overcome what you inherit in life.

No day-to-day mishaps or indignities can really compromise your sense of self after you've survived a deep tragedy.

I went and did some things [rehab], and then of course my life didn't change that much [for a while], but I never missed work.

I was brought up to never lie. Sure, I have. But in the final mix, the lies I've told are far outweighed by the truths I've lived.

I got fired when I was a dishwasher at Denny's. That set me back a little bit. You don't realize how important dishwashers are until you do the job.

I became an actor, and because I had success as an actor, I became famous. I was acting for quite a while before I got famous; television made me famous. I guess that it's television that is responsible for everybody's desire to be famous.

The greatest sin is judgment without knowledge.
