The acting world is a humbling experience, I find.

The accent is always critical for me because it informs a lot of the character.

You're special, if you have some power in the world. People are looking at you and they think you're special.

I grew up being fascinated by accents and dialects. One of the things that interested me were actors that were doing different characters, or sort of more caricatures.

Villains are not fun for me to play, as such. But caricature-ish, intense behaviors that are based on real human traits are interesting. That makes an interesting story.

My combined experiences, doing different films, has made me very concerned about and interested in how you protect your creative self when the work, by default, is going to be judged by people.

Because I'm a filmmaker at heart, I know a villain can't be too humanized and the audience can't empathize with him too much.

I suppose comedy is my first love, in a way.

I would definitely describe myself as a workaholic.

Why do we wear clothes? Genesis!

It's an honor to be playing with these four players and to be a part of their fifth World Series title and my first.

When we got married my wife told me I was one in a million. I found out she was right.

I think in the end we all know that our best friend is ourselves. We are born alone and we die alone. That's the journey.

To revive sorrow is cruel.

I certainly wouldn't advocate anyone using drugs on a regular or habitual basis.
