I can't help but be a little more gun-shy and wary about people.

People are human. There's such a premium today on being perfect. That's just not the way people are.

[Doctor Cukrowicz] was basically a role where you have two diva actresses - Maggie Smith and Natasha Richardson - and my role was to say, "And then what happened? Tell me more." But I wanted to do it was because a) it was Tennessee Williams, a great writer, and b) it was Richard Eyre, an amazing director. And to work with those two amazing women!

One of my favorite books [The Stand] of all time. I grew up reading it.

The press concentrates on a divorce an actor's going through and they ignore the good performances he gives, or the causes that he works for.

In the business of acting, those are the actors that make the trains run on time, you know? There's nothing without them.

I literally knew nothing when I did that show ["Tony Flanagan"]. It was the first time I signed an autograph, it was the first time I got fan letters, it was the first time people screamed when I came out.
