“I think Batman is a great character in that he has a lot of internalization, and his heroics come from a dark place.”

“I was a sandwich artist at Subway and can still rattle off the order of toppings. I was fired because I got meatball sauce on the ivory cutting boards.”

“I play the guitar, and I juggle.”

“I get bored watching action movies.”

“I was always worried with comedy - what if I came to work and I wasn't in a funny mood? That hasn't been an issue.”

“Well, I was coming off of being on 'Law & Order,' and I was a little worried that it might be the end of my career - I've never been one of those actors with a lot of confidence that the next good job will come along.”

“If you think about movies that are adapted from books, they never feel like enough. There's always too much cut out in the end. You either make a five hour movie or you leave out stuff that should be in there.”

“I hate when actors call stuff they're in their 'work.'”

“I personally would rather raise my child in New York. It seems like it would be easier to make sure she or he gets a whole bunch of experience and understanding of the world. But, people in general think it's easier to raise a kid when you don't have so much stuff in your face.”

“The first girl I kissed was a suburbanite.”

“To be an actor takes a lot of courage, but the way I did it takes less courage. I was very lucky.”

“There's a really unique relationship between a single parent and their child. Marriages so easily break up. There's kind of this temporary deal about marriages. That's one of the things that makes it stressful, and that's something that's nonexistent in a parent-child relationship.”

“In general, you don't want to move your kids when they're teenagers. They're not going to be happy with you.”

“When I was a kid, I liked Superman. When I got a little older, I liked Wolverine. And then I found girls.”

“There's not a lot of room anymore for what I call 'made-up' drama. The drama comes from real places now - marriage takes work and focus, the kid stuff takes patience and commitment. And if you don't grow as people and as a couple, within all of that, then you've got some real drama.”

“In 'Law & Order,' your main job is to stay out of the way of the plot. On another show you'd receive your script and see stuff that seems challenging and feel excited that the writers thought highly enough of you to write it for you.”

“So much comedy comes out of an earnest, deeply rooted need for one thing or another, trying to get it and caring so much that you lose your sense of self-awareness.”

“There's a lot of actors out there or people who want to be actors. It's unique to find somebody that, you know, needs to be an actor.”

“Maybe they'll start making serialized movies. I watched the first couple seasons of '24' and it's really fun. I bought the DVD and watched it over a month or so and it's great. It's like reading a novel. It has a lot of possibilities that are more difficult to accomplish with a film.”

“Being on a Dick Wolf show is different than other shows. It's one of the most stable ships you can be on. You can count on the difficult decisions being made, which makes you, as an actor, feel more comfortable and relaxed.”
