Every morning we have a choice -- forget our dreams or live them.

To get to play a bad person and do bad things in a safe environment like 'Arrow' was pretty amazing.

Before Fringe I was in Dirty Sexy Money playing Jeremy Darling who was this bratty New York socialite.

Fringe' was the first time I realized that I could ever man up in a character and make this transition from being a boy or a young man into actually being a man.

Whatever kind of story you're telling, whether it's a genre piece for a comic book or whatever it is, it has importance because it's all a metaphor for the existence of our being.

I think what's so great about 'Arrow' is that they really ground everything in reality.

It's not that achievements prove our worth but rather that the process of achieving is the means by which we develop our effectiveness, our competence at living.

Well, in the sense that we do not tour or record together anymore - then I suppose not. But if our old recordings get heard more we shall be delighted.

I always wanted to be someone better the next day than I was the day before.
