The 24 Hour Plays is a quite brilliant, exhilarating event for everyone concerned.

If you look back through history in the United States, there have been very few landslide elections. Half the country always voted for someone else.

The only thing worse than a loser is someone who won't admit he played badly.

I can't judge the characters I play, because it's for the audience to do. What I can try to do is to understand and embody what were they going through? How did they make the decisions they made? That to me is a more interesting way to approach something, rather than saying this person is a villain and that person is this and - because it's not very interesting to play that anyway.

I was not a studious kid, and I struggled to find things that would command my attention and engage my ideas and energies.

I think what we have seen in terms of gay teenagers committing suicide because of bullying is anguishing. I think young people, if they are feeling like they are confused, need to know that there are people to talk to and that there are places they can go and not feel alone. But I feel that they have just as many rights as I do to not be bullied.
