This Whole Celebrity Racket, It's Not Really My Bag. I Don't Really Do That Stuff, And I Am Not Looking To Get Famous Myself. I Would Love It If My Characters Get Famous, My Work Was Well Known And Appreciated. But I'm An Actor, Not A Spokes Model Or A Celebrity Or Whatever That Is. I Don't Know How To Be That.

I'm Alienated From This World Because Its Weird And I Don't Want To Be A Part Of It. I Want To Be Part Of The People That Are More Imaginative And Crazy.

For A Long Time, It Was Like I Was Part Of Some Special Forces Unit: I'd Land, Meet Everyone, Five Minutes Later I'd Have To Do Some Amazing Work, Then - Boom! - I'm Out Again. You Know, Playing Supporting Parts Takes Courage.

I Was A Solid C Student Because I Was Doing So Many Plays. I Was A Drama Nerd, But I Was Also Kind Of A Zelig-like Character; I Would Shift Between Different Groups Of People. But The People I Spent Most Of My Time With Were Either Chorus Or Swing Choir Or The Drama Nerds.

I Always Felt Really Guilty If I Spent Too Much Time Playing Video Games. It's A Colossal Waste Of Time. And I Can't Say It's A Very Satisfying Feeling At The End Of The Day, If You've Spent Eight Hours Playing A Video Game; You Just End Up Feeling Kind Of Spent, And Used.

The Kind Of über-objective Is To Make People Laugh. You Always Have To Have That In The Back Of Your Mind, "eh, I've Got To Figure Out A Way To Make This Funny."
