This is unbearable how I talk.

Making Homeland series is not improvisational comedy theater, but it is improvisation. We might get a call that morning, while we're doing something, and the change goes in that is something that just happened an hour ago, in the world.

I desperately want to see the day today and do the best I can not miss a shred of sunlight. It'll be over before I know it.

People who go into the arts are often hurt people. Many are manic-depressive. Some have tried suicide and some have succeeded. It's just part of the game. We are people who are oversensitive. That's why we're in this business, because of our need to communicate.

I try to say something about the human condition whenever I can when I'm lucky.

My inner motivation is to make the world a better place; the bad guy and the good guy think the same thing.

I'm a spiritual person, I'm an America, I'm a Jew, and all of those things influence every breath I take, everywhere I go.
