My guilty pleasure is reality TV, as I am really nosey.

But nothing beats a Woody Allen film on a Sunday night, with a glass of wine and some leftovers.

Being on Broadway and getting a Tony nomination - this has been an incredible ride, from rather humble beginnings.

I am a total sucker for an actor's autobiography/biography. I have probably read most of them.

I read everything by Ian McEwan, he is so elegant. I love reading anything about Shakespeare, too. He is my first love. If I had a time machine, I would be hanging out with him.

My parents are not theatrical people, but my dad took me to the theater.

The Forest of Arden, where I grew up, is where As You Like It is set. It was idyllic.

I would see anything by Antony Gormley.

I really do not want to carry some kind of party function.

In the class that I teach at one University, I stress that my one-word definition of politics is money. You can't name a subject matter that money doesn't touch.

You can't make good scores happen. You've got to let it happen.

If you worry, you die. If you don't worry, you also die. So why worry?

I don't think we could have given a more honest version of ourselves to the world than we did for ["This Is Mike Stud"].

I was in Bangalore, India, the Silicon Valley of India, when I realized that the world was flat.
