I've definitely had crazy acting teachers.
-
My standard uniform is a T-shirt and jeans.
-
One of the ways I learned how to act, really, is by having secrets and having to function as a kid in a public school in suburban Bible Belt Texas.
-
Everybody thinks that equality comes from identifying people, and that's not where equality comes from.
-
I think anyone who's ever gone through adolescence and wanted something from their parents knows the basic tenets of a con.

I felt a responsibility to Simon and to our kids to be able to live with integrity and not have some strange split psychology of 'This is who my dad is at home, and this is who he is to the public.'
-
Making a great television show is hard enough. To also tackle F. Scott - whoa.
-
When I was 27, I felt old. I didn't feel healthy. I just wasn't taking care of my body, and I had a body that wanted me to take care of it.
-
I would love to just keep working with really great directors who really inspire me.
-
I'd like to get a chance to wear two different hats in the business. I also think it would be really great to do an adaptation of a great novel.
-
I would say confidence and security and comfortability in one's own skin. I think that's so attractive. Truly.
-
You should be watching 'White Collar' because it's a fun, intelligent procedural infused with a lot of great character writing by Jeff Eastin.

I married up. He's an intelligent and kind soul.
-
My favorite actors are people who I don't know anything about, and I can project any character onto them.

For some reason, they always gave me a fat suit in high-school productions. If there was a character who needed to be robust, they gave me a fat suit, and I put on a silly voice.

When I was in high school, there was no safe haven, there was no outlet for you to speak your mind.

There was so much going on in 1936 with the height of the Great Depression and the Spanish Civil War and Germany on the move and all of those things. There was a tension in the air.
-
I see what kids in the business have to watch. It's tough to do.
-
I'm from a very athletic family, and I thoroughly enjoyed sports as a kid, but acting was a way of expressing myself and having fun. It was something I found on my own.
-
You're not going to do that. If you gave your best to what you were given, at the time, it's going to play out how it's going to play out.
-
I'm blessed to have a family, so it's not like I'm twiddling my thumbs. When I'm not working, that's where all my attention comes.
-
I think you work on the roles that draw you in and the stories you want to tell.

I'm so grateful to be born in the times I live in and to be provided the opportunities I've been given. I'd be wrong to complain.
