Series television is either a nightmare or the best thing in the whole world. It really depends on, I think, where you are in your life.

You can't mess up. If you do, everyone wants to kill you.

It took the producers a while to realize I wanted a full-bodied life. I wanted to get out before I felt I'd sacrificed so much to get somewhere that I couldn't afford to leave.

Why does anybody want to be famous? You know what's important to me? Having lunch! Pasta! Seeing my friends! Is that so crazy?

I played the best role I've ever seen on TV or film in the last five years. It was hugely gratifying.

I had my electricity turned off three times because I never had time to pay my bills. It was a joke. I'm making a ton of money, and I'm walking around my apartment with flashlights.

I don't get rattled about the big things. I get rattled when I have to pick up my laundry, get gas in the car, pick up a script.
