Quotes

  • I want to be happy. I want to go to bed at night saying that was a good day. Asking myself, have I gotten rid of one more regret? OK, good, then I'm doing better off than I was.
  • You ask all the right questions and come up with some right answers and wrong answers. You make some choices that later on you say, 'Oh that wasn't a good idea.' But as long as you've tried, you can feel confident that you're doing the right thing.
  • Almost everything in life strikes me as funny, not in a frivolous way but I do crack up quite easily.
  • The villain is usually more fun, because the villain is more conflicted. The romantic guy is usually not. And if he's conflicted over anything, it's 'Do I get chocolates or do I get roses?'
  • (On actors being a perfect mix of people) "It's like any high school class, except that they all look pretty good in tuxedos and evening wear!"
