I love the way Damon Lindelof writes. It's almost like he was channeling me and he had my voice, even though the territory that those lines cover is unpredictable, and goes from raw emotion to laugh out loud funny but always true.

I'm the most computer illiterate human being that ever lived. My grandkids do everything for me, and then they say, "I won't even explain it to you, grandpa, 'cause you won't get it."

What I didn't realize about television was that's true of acting, as well. You have that space of time to develop who you are, and you can use more and more of yourself. The lines between that character that I'm playing and myself become more and more blurred and, after awhile, they just disappear, altogether.

In my life, all of the best things that have happened to me have almost invariably been accidents or fate.

Very often, when you're playing people who love each other, or who hate each other, you manufacture those feelings. You have to do that a lot.

Very rarely do actors, even with features, get to live with a part for that long and really dig into it.

I watched some of Lost series. And I realized that the character they wanted me to play didn't really come in for a long time. It would have just been the wrong thing for me to do.
