You discover a lot of things on your feet and if you don't have any rehearsal, then anything that happens on the screen is by accident.

I try not to rely on pop culture references as a crutch for jokes, because then, I think, that's when the timelessness quality is lost.

Love is something that is very personal to each individual based on where they are in their lives. It fluctuates and changes over time.

And here is the lesson I learned in the army. If you want to do a thing badly, you have to work at it as though you want to do it well.

I am an international citizen conceived in Russia, born in England, working in Hollywood, living in Switzerland, and touring the World.

I think you ultimately have to love who you're playing. You have to have that kind of feeling. You have to have passion for the person.

I wasn't dating anyone. I was hyper-focused on acting. So I didn't bring a guy to the prom. I was the lone gay person as far as I knew.

That's the one thing I have over any twenty-one-year-old: a proud history of accumulated neuroses. That's the game in which I'm da man.

I'm a sporadic reader. I have moments when I can't stop... then I kind of forget that I can read. But then I go, 'Oh God, yeah, books!'

Before 'Mad Men,' I definitely had very dry spells and I know what those feel like, and I don't think that ever leaves you as an actor.

My next film, 'The Prince Of Players,' was Hollywood's first turkey in CinemaScope - when CinemaScope was new and hotter than a pistol.

There were people I know that got upset that I kiss people. I kiss them for luck and love, that's all. That's what my mother did to me.

When I was 16, my friends were in a drama group, and they asked me to join. I said no, I'm not interested, that it's not really for me.

I've kept a diary since I was 11. It's a way of taking stock, almost meditative, trying to make sense of stuff because life is chaotic.

Sometimes I'm kind of spacey. I'm like Ferdinand the bull, sniffing the daisy, not aware of time, of what's going on in the real world.

I know who I am. No one else knows who I am. If I was a giraffe, and someone said I was a snake, I'd think, no, actually I'm a giraffe.

My parents are cartoons. When they come up and visit, they're hilarious. My mother somehow finds a way to get in the way of everything.

Even though the show is called 'Childrens Hospital,' we don't use kids a lot. They always want a juice box or a fruit roll up or a nap.

Early days, I was a bit racked , particularly when I did Hitler, for CBS . That was hellish. That stayed with me for quite a long time.

I have so much respect for directors. It's a tremendous amount of pressure; you have to keep steadfast and keep what you know is right.

Because I am known in the horror genre now, I try and do at least one horror movie a year for my fans, my fans have been so good to me.

Just last year I couldn't even get a date, and then this year… it's so bizarre that everybody just changes their mind at the same time.

Rob Lowe, I've known him for a long time because I have three daughters, ya know. He's been cruising those three girls for a long time.

I was spawned by some pretty good people in this business - Mr. Astaire, Mr. Tracy. They stopped and took their time to talk to people.

I prefer to be handcuffed at home. The idea of voice work to me is great fun, especially when it's a chance to do two different voices.

Anything that's really grounded in humanity and is real, but just happens to be faux pas, or just really shouldn't be funny, I like it.

I'll never forget seeing 'Guys and Dolls' over and over. I used to sit up in the coliseum watching this magnificent musical. Brilliant.

I don't have any intentions to return to England. I would go back if I could return as a free person. I don't want to return to prison.

I love radio and have done a little bit for years - since 'Workers' Playtime' in the 1950s. It's also a good springboard for comedians.

A law which attempts to say you can criticise and ridicule ideas as long as they are not religious ideas is a very peculiar law indeed.

Women are not in love with me but with the picture of me on the screen. I am merely the canvas upon which the women paint their dreams.

Quality is subjective. There are quality blockbusters; there are quality versions of every genre and it doesn't necessarily mean money.

I was always a big fan of the books and over the years I've become quite attached to Ron and we've meshed into the same person, really.

I believe in singing for my supper. I'll never accept a grant because what I do should be able to be founded purely on free enterprise.

I'm Jim Phillips, I have multiple personalities. I'm also a skindiver, a puppeteer, and I was the tenth president of the United States.

Patriots is quite simple; there's seven continents in the world, if you had to sacrifice one continent and make it six would you do it?

I don't care what people think of me as a person, but I do care what people think of my work, and whether I'm investing enough into it.

At heart, this job is about continuing to make great theatre for the people of Sheffield - a city I've known and loved since childhood.

There are 16 year olds competing at the olympics and i still push on pull doors & struggle getting through the whole day without a nap.

The writers did a great job of adapting the characters from the 'Frozen' story and implementing them into the 'Once Upon a Time' world.

Theater is the most challenging thing to do. It's just you out there with no rope. You can't call time out; you're on a roller coaster.

Just to get a job is always really exciting to me. I do feel there's a lot left for me to learn about movies, the subtleties of acting.

If something sticks around long enough that it makes it to seasonal D.V.D. release, I'll watch it. That's how I watched 'The Sopranos'.

I've made a lot of crazy comedy videos and said a lot of crazy things. If it's too offensive, I apologize and move on, but I do comedy.

I was the only white kid in my neighborhood for most of my youth even in high school, so reverse racism was just as apparent as racism.

The trouble with addiction is that you can park the car but you can never switch off the engine or stop yourself from hearing the revs.

I do like to dress up and look nice, and I'm inspired by people who do the same - people who express themselves through how they dress.

It's not legal to gamble but it is legal to do fantasy leagues. To me it's an outlet where people can go on, play, and make some money.

One of the beauties of 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' is the very delicate and strange relationship between the two main characters.

One of the key things I did to stay on my diet is I never allowed myself to get hungry. As soon as I got hungry, I'd eat healthy foods.
