Character actors just pile up the credits because you work on a movie for like a few days. It's not like I'm the lead in everything I do - far from it. I'm not spending three or four months on a picture; I'm spending three or four weeks. Sometimes three or four days.

I've had dentists who have wanted to help me out, but I say, 'You know, I won't work again if you fix my teeth.'

Every day's an adventure when I step out of my door. That's why I usually wear a hat and keep my head low.

Directing television is really hard - it's so fast. You shoot an hour show in seven days.

It wasn't until my senior year in high school that I started acting.

I was going to buy a van and move to LA so I could secretly pursue acting without any of my friends knowing.

I talked with Quentin about where the character came from, and he told me Kansas City. I don't know how somebody talks from Kansas City, so I made him from New York.
