As an artist, I think it's critical for keeping yourself alive that you try to get your hands into something a little bit more intensely. It's one of the reasons why I love theater because you never actually let go of it and it never feels like there's a tremendous distance between the process and the product.

I think, as an actor, theater is like one of the things that you feel most in control of and in charge of.

You just have to learn how to fall down and get back up again. You just have to keep going.

A day on a film set is maddening.

I want to do more independent film. I'm blessed to be working on really quality episodic television, which to me actually feels like a sort of 13-hour film.
