For sure, you have to be lost to find a place that can’t be found.

I didn't know the Green Lantern comics at all. I was a Superman reader.

Yes, anally retentive men are my forte!

I think that Ionesco's greatest weapon is that he's able to make us laugh at the darkest corners of our souls.

When people come and tell me I was terrific in this or that, I do not want to fall flat on my face next time. But, tough, I have fallen flat before. You just get up and dust yourself off.

I was never a leading man. I've always been in the outer concentric circles in the company, being a character actor, which is a good place to be. It gives you that diversity.

You had to be into sport and, sad to say, I'm a traitor to my country because I don't have a sporting bone in my body.

I die in almost every film I've been in.

I always felt thrilled and amazed that I could put actor on my tax form.

People are intrigued and fascinated, almost obsessed with the private lives of great public personalities.

I always had a fantasy of being a chef, because I like kitchen life.

I liked the theater. I liked the people. I liked the time that we worked.

What I try to do as an actor is constantly find that, find ways to risk, find opportunities to fall on my face if it's going to be worth it, and then maybe I'll surprise myself.

I think I would not be described as a character actor in that I don't take on characteristics which are very alien to me.

My father was a CPA. He worked hard in the aircraft industry, and would come home more and more infrequently. He was about to leave my mother, which he did when I was 15.

Now in my theater training I showed no aptitude at all.

And trust, yes, which is important, but that is what I aim towards. Now that is difficult for some people, and with that desire to get things as good as possible, I would say that I’m probably regarded as quite prickly to work with.

Godspell was a good leap for me, it was a good shop window.

I was the youngest. The yule lamb. The one who always got away without doing the washing up. My sister was four years older, and my brother six years.
