The guy who kills 38 people is not the guy you'd want to have over at Thanksgiving.

I think I've made a career out of making despicable people likable.

I take it as a real compliment that people believe that I can in some ways mine the disenfranchised, the marginalized, the somewhat off-center - psychologically speaking - people in our society, and bring a real humanity to them, and make people see what would otherwise be a person that you would hate. Find a reason to love them and see the world from their point of view.

I really enjoy what I do, and I'm very grateful to be given an opportunity to do it. That's one thing that people can say about me.

I really believe that when you're playing a character that everything is contained in the script. If I'm pulling from things from my own life, then I think I'm being disingenuous to the character and the story.

I'm kind of the funny guy that hopefully kind of wins your heart if I did my job.

No, but there are people I grew up with from the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains that would give any person on 'Justified' a run for their money in the scary department.
