When we were shooting 'Oz,' my wife was doing 'Beauty and the Beast' on Broadway, singing and dancing. It was an interesting dichotomy in our house.
-
My understanding, from what I've learned so far about Commissioner Gordon, is that he's the older guy with the mustache who relates with our hero in a certain way.
-
I've been your yellow M&M for, oh, at least two decades or so, and I've done a lot of other animated stuff in between.
-
We all want to not repeat ourselves constantly, and explore the limits of our capabilities.
-
For me, the lean times were a wonderful, beautiful time of my life, struggling for many years in regional theater all over the country for not much money.
-
I actually have a degree in music and was aware that music was a tool used in therapy. I didn't realize how far it had come since I was in college in the mid-seventies.
-
You can't play a guy who's just a snake, because what do you draw on?
-
Things heal. Bad stuff happens, but you go on. Life takes care of it.
-
I like to stay home. I don't want to be away shooting in Europe for six or eight months at a stretch.
-
I've had a contemptuous relationship with authority throughout my life. I found myself at odds with authority, and I'm disdainful of blind authority.
-
I just saw 'Men, Women & Children' last night, and it's a devastating movie in a lot of ways, but it's so well done, so well acted.
-
I am who I am. I have a low voice, and I look like somebody's dad or boss or a police chief, and those roles come my way.
-
We're raising a generation of kids who are being overly praised for incredibly minor accomplishments. I think it's counter-productive.
-
Most of my friends - when I was five, six, seven years old - their dads were working in an auto plant in Detroit until 5:30, and then they were sat in rush hour. They weren't around as much. My dad finished at three o'clock, so he was just around more.
-
I've been so blessed to have the opportunities that I've had.
-
I completely agree with feeling the need for or the benefits of being pushed and of being directed on a project and collaborating.
-
I did Broadway shows. And I started realizing that this is actually how I'm going to make my living. So maybe I should try to do television and film and make a better living and get an occasional residual check so I can pay a mortgage someday.
-
I never listened to the Grateful Dead as a teen; the only exposure I got was what came through the walls when my sister was listening to them.
-
Seriously, who doesn't want to slap a 27-year-old movie star?
-
I never had intention of coming to New York or L.A. and actually doing more than scraping by - you know, doing plays. And as my career sort of progressed of its own volition, I did come to New York.
-
In lean times, you get plenty of sleep, and you're not flying around everywhere.
-
I was studying music in college. I was singing, I was doing operas and Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, and then I was offered a job as the music director of the Bigfork Summer Playhouse, in Bigfork, Montana.
-
I do think you need to understand a character's motivation and perspective.
-
I would like to find, or I would like a part to come to me that is like the part that Dennis Franz was fortunate to be able to play on 'NYPD Blue,' a sort of similar-looking actor to me, a generic, bald white guy who you would often think of as playing the authority figure. But he was the disgruntled middle-man. That would be a fun character.
