I'm a terrible patient, and I find that doctors can be very condescending.

I had my electricity turned off three times because I never had time to pay my bills. It was a joke. I'm making a ton of money, and I'm walking around my apartment with flashlights.

Why does anybody want to be famous? You know what's important to me? Having lunch! Pasta! Seeing my friends! Is that so crazy?

Only the patients have to take off their clothes. I think I'm pretty safe.

It took a long time to get out of my contract. The producers thought I was negotiating for more money.

There's only so much you can do with an attorney on a show that's about New York policemen.

It took the producers a while to realize I wanted a full-bodied life. I wanted to get out before I felt I'd sacrificed so much to get somewhere that I couldn't afford to leave.

I played the best role I've ever seen on TV or film in the last five years. It was hugely gratifying.

I don't get rattled about the big things. I get rattled when I have to pick up my laundry, get gas in the car, pick up a script.

I'm incredibly happy to be doing my own thing in New York.

When you're in the middle of your depression, pay good attention to it, because, tended carefully, you never know where it might lead you.

We have rigged the latest election. 93.5 per cent have voted for Lukashenko. But they say it is not a European outcome. We have made it 86 per cent.

If the biblical account of creation in Genesis isn't true, how can we trust the rest of the Bible?

To write, you need to find what you love.

I was never a leading man. I've always been in the outer concentric circles in the company, being a character actor, which is a good place to be. It gives you that diversity.

By Thy power, let there be peace, O God!

"Drugs" are not necessarily narcotics. The narcotic is one type of drug and coffee is a drug... booze is a drug... many drugs.... They're all around us.

Despite the staunchest, most venerable defenses, we can never completely subdue death anxiety: it is always there, lurking in some hidden ravine of the mind.

I'm one of those strange people: I really love going to the gym.

If you learn from an experience, that's good - so nothing bad happened to you.
