When you're a little kid, growing up, most of us know what's right and wrong. Our parents teach us that discipline.

I've had so much fun working on 'Shameless.'

I think every actor should be always grateful when they work.

When people come up to me and say 'I hate you' or 'I love to hate you,' it's not the usual response that I thought I would've gotten halfway into my career. And then they say, 'I love your work.'

With comedy, if you write something for me, I'm better at it. I'm not sure I'm so good at improvisational stuff.

I did a film when I was about 30; it's a coming of age story called 'Gas Food Lodging,' and I'm so proud of that little independent film. I play this young English geologist, and he's such a simple, loving kind of guy. Doesn't talk too much. He's just a quiet guy, and he gets the girl.

I was the little kid growing up. I wasn't picked on because, honestly, I was fast, so I could run away from the bullies.
