I've written virtually as long as I've acted, it wasn't a sudden transition. I acted in my first play when I was 16 and I wrote my first play when I was 17.

If you look in real life, it is very hard to describe people as good people, bad people, heroes or villains. People aren't bad people. They all have their justifications.

My thing is, I like playing guys who have a really interesting internal monologue.

If you're very clearly good or you're very clearly bad, then there isn't that much internal dilemma going on, and that's not necessarily as interesting to play.

I don't usually like talking about acting or what my process is, and all those kinds of things, because I don't necessarily think it's helpful to talk about how I do my job.

I went to an all boys' school in South London and the only god was sport.

I'm part of that generation that grew up watching TV, and being an actor was all about being on TV or being in films.

I'm not setting 'Jericho' up to be anything other than what it is, which is, you know, a piece of good, well thought-out, well put-together TV and entertainment.

I owe 'Jericho' my whole time in America, really. It was a fantastic group of people to work with.

I've worked in the theater, television, and films. A five-hour TV series is certainly more time than a character I'd be playing in a film.

My favorite television show of all time is 'Hill Street Blues.' I think it's the show that is to television what Pele was to football or Muhammad Ali was to boxing.

For those who talks about the perfection of god in making human.....Its his success after billion years of experiments out of millions of other useless creatures

There are a lot of people with a lot of money, and I'm amazed they don't understand what a great pleasure it can be to give.

I love being the mayor. I want to be the mayor forever.

I want to mention that Marx shares something, if you don't mind the comparison, with the Old Testament: many people talk about him, but nobody has read him.

To be is to be perceived (Esse est percipi)." Or, "If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?

Someone criticized an elderly man for wooing young women. He replied that that was the only way to rejuvenation, which was, afterall, everybody's wish.

Understand this clearly: if you know how to give, you must know how to pay back. . .

Introverts are generally more sensitive to low-intensity stimuli - they are mentally alerted to inputs that extroverts may miss.

Art teaches us to see into things. Folk art and kitsch allow us to see outward from within things.

Terrorists act as they do because they don't have great power at their easy disposal. The result is that they rely upon the ability to exploit the mistakes of others.
