I don't even know what TV star means. I know there's a difference in how people approach you, compared to movies. They feel OK coming up to you and sitting with you in a restaurant, unfortunately.

I wouldn't mind having another shot at doing comedy, but I'm not sure that's the way I'd want to go.

I'm not sure I always feel like I'm in the seat. Sometimes I'm only holding on by one hand and flying out behind the roller coaster. I don't know anybody who doesn't feel that way.

I will be always grateful to NBC.

You get to the middle of a take that's going really well and the camera will run out of film. They have to stop you, apologize and then you've got to get things going all over again.

In my first film, I was a basketball player. Like every good actor, I lied when they asked me if I could play.

For a lot of people, if they're lucky, it begins with somebody who recognizes something in them.

I don't care about the money. I just need, as an actor, to do as many different things that I can to make me feel good about myself.

When you walk on the set, whatever it is, you commit yourself to the job. You're committing yourself to doing the best you can do with it, no matter what you feel about it, and that never changes.

I have so many people who still talk to me about The Long Kiss Goodnight, about that being one of their favorite movies, and it really was a fun movie.

In independent film you tend to have stories that involve more of a community, and the smaller characters are important to the story.

Julia was as happy as Betsy was, almost. One nice thing about Julia was that she rejoiced in other people's luck.

You may not be a great success when you are too busy with life and forget to love.

The secret to making yourself stronger is to absorb the strength of the people around you—energy begets energy.

This is the United States of America. It means we respond to our fellow Americans in times of crisis and emergency and disaster.

I did a theatrical musical, Annie Warbucks, when I was 11. We did a tour and we stopped by Los Angeles.

When you're driving, the helmet squashes your hair, so you don't really have a hairstyle. When you get out, you're sweating and your hair is a mess.

Oh, the ongoing love affair between hair and mouths. Hair always goes for the mouth. The mouth opens, and hair says, "I'm going in! I'm going in!" like a manic cave diver.

The cultural contrast I saw between religions... Catholics have a lot of mediators, going through saints and Mary or whatever. Protestants in general say things to God directly.

Maybe my identity's been stolen. Or maybe I was sleep-shopping!
