I think of myself as an actor.

People start to act very unusually when they find out that they're dying, that they don't have that many years left.

2005 was a great year for me for fantastic roles that nobody saw.

I love the script and I just thought it was a great role. Like I say, it's like this - the script is like this sad, funny, desperate love song to the lost American man.

The directors that I end up having a really good time with are the ones that understand the fluidity of the medium and are interested in catching lightning in a bottle.

The only thing I wanted to do when I was a young naive kid was to become a New York stage actor.

You know I feel very fortunate that my life has turned out the way that it has - whatever that means - I mean... you know, to say that I would be glad would mean that I planned it.
