“Denial is strong with this one.”

“Social media is an amazing tool, but it's really the face-to-face interaction that makes a long-term impact.”

“I'm a huge fan of BioWare games. I think they do some of the best character-building. I mean, I have a relationship with Thane from 'Mass Effect' that is as vivid as any crush that I've had on a TV-show character.”

“My goal in creating Geek & Sundry was to create a community based around web video, and we've accomplished that, especially on our budget.”

“Just because you have star power and a huge marketing budget, you can see from some professional web series, it doesn't equal views.”

“I've always felt like a failure inside if I'm not already a success, if that makes any sense.”

“I was a child of a tech family. My grandfather was a nuclear physicist and was always a gadget guy.”

“Basically, my socialization as a child didn't come from any schooling; it came from being in theater and meeting people online.”

“Voice acting is very different from live-action. You only have one tool to convey emotion. You can't sell a line with a look. It's all about your vocal instrument.”

“I've read every single fantasy novel there is. I mean, I would challenge a lot of people to read more fantasy novels than I have.”

“I was a huge fan of video games; I wanted to write something, and I saw the tools at my fingertips to upload a video to my audience, and that's why I'm here today. I think that freedom and the lack of gatekeepers, combined with people's passion, is what really the true spirit of Internet geekdom is about.”

“Typecasting is something I have to be careful with, since I play myself on Geek & Sundry so much on my weekly show 'The Flog.' That's why I did 'Dragon Age: Redemption' last year, so I could do something a little more dramatic and hard-edged.”

“I'm very persistent; I know the Internet very well, because I grew up on the Internet. I had Internet when there was just dial-up, and the Internet was my social outlet.”

“I couldn’t trust my own mind anymore, which wasthe scariest thing I’ve ever experienced.”

“Yeah, yeah, success is a ladder, a marathon instead of a sprint and all that crap. Everyone can TELL you stuff like that, but you really have to understand advice in relation to YOURSELF, or it's all just nice intellectual theory.”

“People always ask why I stay in the online space versus going to TV or film, like most people would do, and the answer is that there's opportunity for innovation online - not only innovation in storytelling, but also innovation in how you interact with your audience and that is very fulfilling to me personally.”

“Every single job is a challenge. You are walking into a new set, a new character, creating a world and trying to get comfortable to do your best work.”

“I have dozens of loyal fans! Baker's dozens! …they come in thirteens.”

“I'll be in a series for three or four episodes, but then I'll be off the series, and downtime, as an actor, is a little more than most people understand. Most of the time you're just sitting around taking coffee with friends.”

“It's either perfect, or it's the worst thing ever made and everyone is an artistic failure, including myself. (Yay, emotional extremes!)”
