At the end of the day, you have a job to do, and if you don't do your job, you're going to get fired. You just have to kind of put your head down and do it.

I was never much of a musical theater guy, but I have so much more respect for the art form, the physical exertion of doing eight shows on Broadway a week, I cannot even fathom it.

Look at the movies of the sixties and seventies. They were making a different kind of movie then. Would 'Network' ever be made now? No. Would 'Kramer vs. Kramer' ever be made now? No. Would 'Tootsie' ever be made now? Probably not. Robert Altman films? Never.

Dating someone on the opposite end of the happy spectrum teaches you an incredible amount of patience.

You have to be able to carry a conversation. I think after the initial attraction kind of dies down. The lust dies down. There has to be the thing that engages you.

There's some beautiful filmmaking on television. I'm getting a lot of my artistic sustenance from what's happening there.

I have a romantic vision of the beautiful delineation between TV and film that existed for so many years. I romanticize the studio system and movie stars as a whole, but obviously that's just anachronistic and probably a non-reality.

Uh, I do not wear a wig in 'Star Trek' like I did in 'Bottle Shock,' thank God. 'Bottle Shock' will be the last wig movie I ever do.

When you feel like an oddball, it never really leaves you. Even now, I'm better around people who are uncomfortable with themselves - the misfits.

I like a deep sports massage - a casual beating up. I try to get them whenever I can, usually more if I'm getting in shape for a role.

You can be many miles away and press a button on a keyboard, and it can cause devastation.

I have such awful skin; it doesn't matter what magic serum they think they're putting on - I'll usually break out.

One thing that I do find really sexy is a girl who's good at crossword puzzles.

It's really interesting that, in 'The Avengers,' the character that people relate to is The Hulk, and I think the reason why they relate to The Hulk is because he's fragile and human and faulty.

My fans have designated themselves the, uh, 'Pine Nuts.' They're a nutty bunch.

For me, work is one thing, and my life is another.

I always enjoyed singing; I played guitar.

I had a job at this French restaurant, and I hated it. I don't like serving; I don't like getting people ketchup.

I believe in luck and fate and I believe in karma, that the energy you put out in the world comes back to meet you.

'Star Trek' is about a bunch of disparate people and what they're capable of when they work together.

L.A.'s a pretty, warm, easy, breezy place. You can sunbathe, get a Mai Tai, and wake up five months later. And it's still sunny. And they're still serving Mai Tais.

For me growing up, Christmas time was always the most fantastic, exciting time of year, and you'd stay up until three in the morning. You'd hear the parents wrapping in the other room but you knew that also, maybe, they were in collusion with Santa Claus.

I was sick of being articulate and loud and charming. I didn't want to play that guy anymore. I wanted to play the absolute opposite of that.
