I never thought that I would be so attracted to television, but I don't think gigs like 'Dexter' come along too often.

I usually spend the hiatus of 'Dexter' in New York in a way to balance things.

I hate to say it because I feel like it might be a jinx, but yes - knock on wood - I have never broken a bone.

I love that there's a beginning, middle and end to a film and you can craft what the whole journey is going to look like.

Well, I made an announcement to my family at 8 that I wanted to be an actor, and I focused like a laser beam on it. I never had a fallback plan.

It's sacred for an actor to keep their personal life personal.

My sister is a chiropractor and she says I have an unusually flexible lower back, but I don't do yoga, and I don't feel like I'm very bendy.

My laundry list of wants in a partner is basically kindness. I want someone who is kind, and that's kind of where it begins and ends. I'm open to being surprised.

I read Christopher McDougall's book 'Born to Run.' If running were a religion, this would be its bible. I actually scribbled my favorite passages on my arm to read during the race.

Practice being in the moment when you are running, whether you are on your own or in the race.

The journey may be fraught with challenges, yet it continues, for even the smallest leaf must embrace destiny...Persistence is the key...

People's character will be revealed in difficult situations, whether they are a loser or a winner.

The burden is on the sane.

I am a teacher. And I think I am a serious one who happens to be enjoying life.

I'm eighteen and I like it.

I come down to the water to cool my eyes. But everywhere I look I see fire; that which isn't flint is tinder, and the whole world sparks and flames.

A good man will certainly also possess courage; but a brave man is not necessarily good.

If I raised my hand to wipe the hair out of my children's eyes, they'd flinch and call their attorney.

Music is to the mind as air is to the body.

Our brains deal exclusively with special-case experiences.
