I did five episodes of Townies as Jenna Elfman's boyfriend. I was a guest star, but it was the first time I really got to play laughs in front of a sitcom audience.

I'm doing a very funny show in which we talk about issues. I speak at Aids charities and things. It's great to do something fun with our days and yet we're told we're doing something important.

I remember I had scenes with Melinda McGraw in "Ides Of March" that I didn't have in "Video Vigilante," but I can't quite picture that other character. But it was Vancouver, and that year was crazy

As a television actor, there's a power you're given to use your image to do something valuable. As a parent, these messages are particularly important to me.

The Andromeda strain is a killer disease that they've got to prevent from spreading to being 100 percent contagious. It's another one where we're racing to save humanity.

My most romantic job: I was a manager at Baskin-Robbins.

I always get a little uppity when I hear the phrase 'TV actor.' It's like saying you're a magazine reporter. I was in the theater for ten years before I ever had a TV audition.

Half of life is lost in charming others.The other half is lost in going through anxieties caused by others.Leave this play. You have played enough.

Every day my anxiety is higher, every day the grief more mortal.Today more than yesterday terror exalts me…

The best thing about the iPhone is this that tells me where I am all the time. Theres never a need to feel lost anymore.

Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.

As a comedian, I think you need to keep things real.

I love the love of those who are far enough away, it becomes whatever I wish to believe it.

Pain will force even the truthful to speak falsely.

Where life is more terrible than death, it is then the truest valor to dare to live.

Broadway, I have to memorize everything. You get one time to do it right.

I share every aspect of my life with the internet. Whether or not that's a good thing I don't know.
