I can't emphasize the immediate panic that would set in when I had to audition. I can't believe I did it.

I just don't feel like part of the fraternity of actors. I do geek out. All the time.

I am not a member of the chamber of commerce for show business, believe me, but there are some really good people in the business, and [Tom] Hanks has this everyman decency onscreen, but he actually is that guy.

I guess show business is a lot like baseball: "Wait until next year!" You just never know. Some of the shittiest shows I've ever seen run forever, and some of the best things never get a chance.

In general, I did what a lot of character actors do: I did it to get girls.

Why focus on what somebody might think? Nobody talks [on TV] like people really talk most of the time.

Show business is a great place to fail upward... and I guess that's what I've done.
