I don't consider myself a comedian because I don't really concern myself too much with jokes.

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

Oh, the weather outside is weather.

To me some of the funniest movies would be probably categorized in the dramatic genre, and likewise some of the most dramatic films, or films that have the most dramatic moments, are in comedies.

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.

Sometimes you read a script and it's like, "You'll improv and this is just a blueprint of what the scene could be," and that's never a good sign. And it's never encouraging as an actor to take that on, really.
