If I'm doing my job as an actor, the audience knows everything I know about the character.

I love having that creative discussion where, at the end of the day, you both feel better for having done it. Maybe it's a typically Jewish thing, where you sort of go at each other.

You know, I have a deep, deep affinity for Dr. Suess.

I find that the most interestingly written parts happen to be the bad guys.

The best gig is the one you've got.

You always have to create the character from the ground up.

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.
