There's something nice about making a night of the theater rather than sitting in front of your TV.

I'm not going to allow myself to second-guess projects. I'm just going to do the ones that I fully love and believe in - that's a real privilege.

I'm hardly digging trenches for a living. I'm getting to tap into my boyhood fantasies of being a larger-than-life character.

I always kept myself fairly fit.

Every job leaves its residue, a bit of extra knowledge, a new skill-set.

The tricky thing becomes: Do you know yourself well enough to then portray that on screen? And for me, I find that really hard. I'd rather hide behind accents and funny walks.

I'm single, footloose and fancy free, I have no responsibilities, no anchors. Work, friendship and self-improvement, that's me.

I often times find with movies that the heavier the onscreen situation is, the more levity there is off screen. It's almost out of necessity.

Everything is a learning process: any time you fall over, it's just teaching you to stand up the next time.

It's tricky. I've never been standing at the top of the tree with tons of money thrown at me. I've never really had a profile. So in a way I have this 'nothing to lose' attitude.

One of the things I've always enjoyed is moving around and staying fit. Physicality is such a big part of being an actor, but it's also about stillness and silence.

Thoughts are pennies from Heaven

Doubt grows with knowledge.

God gives us power to bear all the sorrows of His making; but He does not give us power to bear the sorrows of our own making, which the anticipation of sorrow most assuredly is.

If you want to work on your art, work on your life.

Magnus was sure that the llama stampede he witnessed was a coincidence. The llamas could not be judging him.

My first gig was in Philadelphia and I played the drums for my older brothers. That same night, I also played drums for Martha and the Vandellas. Ah, the fond memories of being 14.

Die, but do not retreat.

There's always a hole in theories somewhere if you look close enough.

Television was a great place for me to kind of fall on my face and make mistakes and be okay with it and move on.

Curiosity is the surest sign of intelligence
