Nothing is ever cut-and-dried. There's anguish behind everything.

I think there's something great and generic about goldfish. They're everybody's first pet.

Humor is the most important thing in life. It trumps everything else and it's the only thing that helps me deal with everything else.

I never thought of myself as a comedic actor. I didn't go to Second City, that's not my background, I'm not a comic, I studied theater and my career when I started was a lot of dramatic stuff.

There are lots of things that you can go down the list and say, "Oh, these are cliches, we've seen this before, just hits every checkpoint." All of that takes a secondary status for me if I'm reading something and I just really like the characters.

We all have different sides of our personalities, so I'd love to play some more different parts too.

I'm sure that my wanting to be an actor had to do with a need for approval.
