I think it's necessary when you're dealing with a dark show that has explosion and violence to have defined moments of lightness and humor, even romance. It's important, and it deepens the character, of course.

If I were to wait only for roles that clarify my racial makeup, I'd be waiting for a very, very long time.

To be honest, I find going out pretty scary and intimidating. Got all those people checking you out, with only one purpose: hooking up. I'm quite the dork, I'd rather sit home and play Scrabble. But that doesn't get you a girl, does it?

A great book provides escapism for me. The artistry and the creativity in a story are better than any drugs.

My character in 'Prison Break' needs to be formidable. In reality, I'm not very tough at all.

I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly.

Unfortunately, I'm allergic to all animals and even some people.
