I've been very fortunate to go from interesting chapter to interesting chapter.

There are so many examples of talented actors working today, no matter how they live their private lives. I'm lucky that people believe me when I'm in character.

I'm a big proponent of monogamous relationships regardless of sexuality, and I'm proud of how the nation is steering toward that.

Oh sure, now you like him [after the audience applaud David Oyelowo].

I'm wildly impressed with the diversity of gay roles.

That movie [A Series of Unfortunate Events] told four books in two hours, and we have two hours per book. So we have eight hours to tell four books, and if people watch we'll get to tell more of them. There's only thirteen books, so there's only going to be two more seasons, but that allows for a lot of time to be in character and to maintain character.

I don't care about my "impact" - I only care about the theater as an art form and criticism as an act of writing.
