Being an actor sometimes requires that you ask yourself questions youd rather not know the answers to.

I'm a relatively ugly character who's done pretty damn well in film.

If youre not concerned about maintaining an image, you can pursue roads that another actor might not take.

Success is like death. The more successful you become, the higher the houses in the hills get and the higher the fences get.

The audience, the place youre in, has everything to do with how your performance goes.

In recent years we've seen an explosion of creative programming, and I think it represents a third golden age of television because the creators have more control over the story. The audience doesn't care about the platform. They care about the content.

If it were not for people who stepped forward and gave me opportunities at a time when I had not proved myself at all, believe me, I would not have a career.
