I find it very difficult to relax. I find it increasingly difficult to find outlets for my frustration.

I just couldn’t go back to Suddenly Susan after David Strickland’s suicide. I didn’t see how we could make the show light and funny any more.

I am very grateful to make my living doing what I would do for free.

Ice T was just a pleasure to work with. He was a smart gentleman.

It’s great to work with people that you like, any job, no matter what you do.

I don’t have any blindness when it comes to my money. As an actor, you can get distracted by your work. I do keep an eye on my nest egg, if you will.

It is a career of make-believe, of masks. We all have masks in life.

As a kid I had a crush on Sophia Loren and Raquel Welch.

I have adopted clothes from all the projects I’m in. It’s really been a while since I’ve bought anything myself.

The movie that’s had the most effect on me is Jaws. To this day when I’m in the ocean, I’m hearing that music.

I’m involved with Recording Artists and Actors Against Drunk Driving. I’m also involved with most children’s causes, because children can’t help the environment they’re in.

I like the way the old Toyotas look.

My Brat Pack buddies and I didn’t exactly handle celebrity very well. Success at an early age is far more difficult to handle than failure.

I took all the philosophy courses I could.

I went to acting school in New York City for two years. I studied with Stella Adler.

Almost anything makes me laugh, especially jokes at my own expense. And I will never, ever admit to being ticklish anywhere.

I put less stock in others’ opinions than my own. No one else’s opinions could derail me.

I always thought that the badge a cop has was more like the shield that Captain America has. It’s an obvious sign of good and something you’ll protect other people with, but it will also protect you.

Catcher in the Rye had a profound impact on me-the idea that we all have lots of dreams that are slowly being chipped away as we grow up.

You can be knocked down, but it doesn’t mean you’re out.

It’s very easy to confuse Sean Connery with James Bond. Sometimes in the entertainment industry, people believe the cake is more real than the baker.

Young alienation, disappointment and heartache is all a part of the first real growing up that we do.

I don’t know if it matters what country you’re from, size of the city you’re from, urban or rural, there are people that are hurting each other everywhere.

I find it very difficult to relax. I find it increasingly difficult to find outlets for my frustration.

It’s still a bottom-line business. You can be out of control, and if they want you, they’ll pick you. And you can be a mensch, and if you’re not the product they want, you won’t get it.

My first love is acting on stage. A sitcom is a hybrid of stage and film.

Death is not my best subject.

Remember to be as smart as you are.

With failure, you just try again.

My first paid acting job was a movie called Fandango. It also starred Kevin Costner.

I like every single actor or actress in the world, because we never know what the conditions are like when they are working. I give everyone the benefit of the doubt and root for them like a psychotic sports fan.

My closest friend is canine. I have precious few close friends, and most of them are not actors.

I like being a villain. Villains are more exciting.

All of the directors I’ve worked with I have loved and would work with again. I have no favorites.

A fancy watch, it’s completely unnecessary. I just need a watch to tell the right time.

I love the rehearsal process in the theatre, and the visceral sense of contact and communication with a live audience.

Heroes always make the right decision; I find that seldom happens in my life.

While they would have provided financial support if I had needed it, the greatest support my parents gave was emotional, psychological.

When I was in college, all the pretty women were in the theatre, so I auditioned for a play.
