When you walk on the set, whatever it is, you commit yourself to the job. You're committing yourself to doing the best you can do with it, no matter what you feel about it, and that never changes.

I wouldn't mind having another shot at doing comedy, but I'm not sure that's the way I'd want to go.

I'm not sure I always feel like I'm in the seat. Sometimes I'm only holding on by one hand and flying out behind the roller coaster. I don't know anybody who doesn't feel that way.

I will be always grateful to NBC.

Mitt Romney is running for president again. That will be attempt No. 3. Well, everybody needs a hobby. He's almost certainly running, and I'm almost certainly retiring, so I don't care.

I have no stories to sell. A lot of my relationships are with civilians, and no one wants to hear about those.

you never make the same mistake twice. the second time you make it, it is no longer a mistake. it is a choice
