I mean, I understand that Scrubs was my big break, but sooner or later you have to move on. I've already directed a movie, which received very good reviews, so it just seems much more important to me now. I feel that in order to better foster my creativity as an actor and director at this point, I need to be surrounded by other talented, artistic individuals, instead of just goofy comedians.

Sometimes you just gotta use what God gave you to the best of your abilities.

They don't know I'm staring, what does it matter if I keep on doing it?

I don't think it's a black and white issue. If a man's family is starving so to speak, I don't think I'll hold it against him for stealing a loaf of bread.

If you're dumb enough to volunteer for the army, I don't see why we're supposed to feel so bad when you get shot. I'm not saying we should throw a party or anything, but is it such a tragedy? If I'd gotten shot before I made 'Garden State', yeah, that's a tragedy, but some red-state hick getting his legs blown off? Come on.

The biggest problem I had with starring in Scrubs were the black doctors. I just had to keep telling myself this show was satire.

I like hot dogs. I like eggplant. I like pizza and creamed corn and beer. But I don't like Arabs.
