I Like Being Employed, You Know. That's

It's Thought Of As An Eccentric Thing For An Actor To Really Try To Maintain Quality Control Through The Whole Career. Most People Think, 'you Just Work. You Just Keep Working.' And In Some Ways I Wish I Could Be A Guy Who's Just A Workhorse.

I Always Say It Takes As Much Preparation And Thought To Do A Small Part As A Leading Part. In Some Ways, Leads Are Easier Because You Have The Luxury Of Time To Discover The Character.

I Like Working. I Wish I Could Say I Made A Deliberate Choice To Comedy, But It's Just What Came My Way. It's What The Studios Wanted To Make. Some Of My Friends Were Doing It, Like Will Ferrell And Adam Mckay, And They Offered Me 'talladega Nights.' It's Just Nice Work If You Can Get It. It's A Joyful Day At Work, Making Your Friends Laugh.

For A While I Had A Blues Band In L.a., But I Realized I Was Too Optimistic To Play The Blues. I Did Not Have The Misery In My Heart That The Blues Required.

I'm Not Of The Manor Born; I've Never Felt Entitled In That Way. I Just Came To Hollywood To Be An Actor. All That Lifestyle Stuff Is Something To Be Managed.
