I never direct myself, because I don't like working with me. I would punch me in the mouth if I had to take my direction.

I lost 90 pounds and my blood pressure went down to a normal level and the salt in my urine disappeared. And that was when I had to make the transition from fat character actor to thin character actor.

Independent film is almost nonexistent right now, because all the distributers that used to love to put out these little art films are all out of business right now, because it costs so much to open a movie.

I'm real comfortable around people, and it took a long time for me to evolve to that point.

The luxury of television is that you get more than one shot at who you think the guy is that you're playing.

Guys who are larger than life and theatrical and deliciously unpredictable - they're far more interesting than the good guys most of the time. They have these psychological layers that an audience can really cling on to, become fascinated with, much more so than these true-blue, one-dimensional, square-jawed good guys.

I love great animation.
