There's the private persona and the public persona and the two shall never meet

I get panic attacks in big crowds.

I'm drawn to people who share that sense of loss. All actors are trying to repair damaged relationships. I think that might be why I've been drawn to other actors.

You can think about your career or you can think about your job. I like to think about my job.

I was a writer. I just wasn't a very good one. I was lucky enough to have a playwriting teacher who told me that I'd be a better actor than I would a playwright.

I live with an 18-month-old Jack Russell named Chicken. He moved in about 15 months ago, and it was very hard at first because I work a lot and he doesn't.

It's good to overexpose yourself with work. But don't expose yourself too much with the press.
