I know a lot of successful people and none of them are stupid.

Work hard in school and listen to your parents. They really do want the very best for you and have been where you're going.

I'm getting paid to do what I got in trouble for in the 7th grade. I absolutely love what I do and thank my lucky stars for twenty-five years of full-time employment in this business.

I love to improvise when it's appropriate and encouraged by a producer.

My goal is to leave the producer with so many good takes, that he or she has a tough time deciding on the best one.

I'm one of those fortunate actors who gets to work pretty much every day. I've had a run of good fortune and work with some terrific people who have hired me.

The nuances and organic characteristics of a character become second nature if I'm doing my job well.

The best voice actors all have a live performance background. And are competent, fearless, incredibly creative actors.

Stay strong in spirit, be patient and you will overcome any situation.

A worthy failure is more valuable than a mediocre success.

Did you know that writing stories down kills them?Of course it does, words aren't meant to be stiff, unchanging things.

I've just become quite fixated on the idea of calmness and peacefulness somewhere, someday.

How many ideas have there been in the history of man which were unthinkable ten years before they appeared?

I'm an actor... I do a job and I go home. Why are you interested in me? You don't ask a truck driver about his job.

A human being fashions his consequences as surely as he fashions his goods or his dwelling. Nothing that he says, thinks or does is without consequences.

Sure I smoked pot in hospital. My wife won't let me toke at home.
