If your shirt isn't tucked into your pants, then your pants are tucked into your shirt.

I'm very hairy, and men in film and TV are no longer allowed to be hairy.

I've been working steadily as an actor since around 1998. I wasn't well known in the public, but I was a dependable working journeyman.

When I was in high school, I would perform every year in those plays and there was something I really loved about it. But I was completely unaware that you could sort of get into an acting career.

I think what makes so many other actors miserable is focusing completely on making other plans. They're obsessed with their haircut and their headshot and their agent, their IMDB profile or whatever.

Whenever I have a stubborn position on something, I take a deep breath and swallow myself.

I first read Wendell Berry's short-story collections, "Fidelity" and then "Watch with Me." They just knocked my socks off. The characters and the fellowship of the small town reminded me of my own small town in Illinois.Then I discovered that, much like J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, that all of Berry's fiction was centered in this same town.
