Last year, I was on Threat Matrix. We were on Thursday against Friends and Survivor; so this year it's fun to know people are watching, and to know that all of your hard work is not sort of wasted.

I never had any classes or went to theatre school like a lot of actors, so all of my training has been on stage with different directors. That was a pretty good school room.

When I came out here, my manager thought that casting directors might think I'm a girl, and when I did Threat Matrix, they thought Jamie was a little light.

It's still about the women. It's not called Desperate Plumber. People are more interested in cat fights.

I have a long track record of really horrible relationships and a divorce behind me; so I'm not the guy to ask. I just got really fortunate with this one.

Real acting is realistic no matter what the medium.

I love David Caruso. I know it's not cool, but I do. I watch CSI: Miami. I think he's interesting.

I think it's important that the rest of the world know that we're not all the same and that we don't all have the sort of arrogance it feels like they're perceiving from our leaders.

I was born and raised in the South, which is pretty conservative.

I'm not a hard-line Republican, because I'm a lot more open-minded than that.

My parents were amazing people who had no business being together - and they knew it.

I am a monster beneath him, with arching hips, an octopus with hands everywhere at once. I don't think anything in the history of time has felt this good.

Thousands of pastors, Sunday school teachers, and Christian workers are powerless because they do not make the Word the source of their preaching or teaching.

A great many of us have confused change with progress.

Emotional damage is never easy to measure, but mothers who are alive but psychically absent impose filial burdens which knot their children's feelings in a way biologic orphans are spared.

I like Brando's acting ... and James Dean ... and Richard Widmark. Quite a few of 'em I like.

Choice is the engine of our evolution.

Action films are emotionally and physically draining, and you're dirty and sweaty. In a romantic comedy, you have to have your fingernails perfect, you're in air-conditioned rooms the whole time.

Dear brothers and sisters, the Church loves you! Be an active presence in the community, as living cells, as living stones.

Love is the bright foreigner, the foreign self.

I never met anybody who said when they were a kid, I wanna grow up and be a critic.
