I've never been married, and I've never been divorced. But I have had some very serious relationships. I was engaged twice. The way that those relationships ended, it was very very heartbreaking.

When I moved to L.A. in 1989, the very first thing I did was this horrific pilot called To Protect And Surf.

When I landed in L.A. in early '89, William Morris decided to take me on to see if I could get any jobs. I was cast in a TV movie called Protected Surf, and made $30,000 in four weeks, and I decided I needed to take acting seriously, because I had never made that much money in a year, much less four weeks. That's when I decided I thought I could make a career out of it.

I like to keep my private stuff pretty vague.

I probably am. I think Paul Giamatti also said in an interview that I was "f--king crazy." I'm flattered by that. I want to be that guy who's nuts who makes people think.

And there have certainly been movies I wanted to be in and milestones I wanted to surpass that did not happen.

I invested, and I protected myself, so I enjoy that freedom.
