“I know, just from directing television, where you have a huge support system of producers and writers and a script supervisor - not just the cast but a crew of 100 people - there are, as a director, hundreds of questions that you have to answer every day.”

“It's amazing what social media has done for entertainment.”

“Anytime anyone gets passionate over a character you're playing, I think you've done your job well.”

“I do consider myself a film geek. I love television and film.”

“It's amazing, all of the ways that having kids has changed me. I'm a much less selfish person because of them, and compared to who I was before, my patience level seems infinite.”

“Do I seem to play characters that in the end don't get the girl? Maybe. But you don't always get the girl or the guy, and there has to be someone to play that.”

“TV's been very kind to me.”

“I love the industry that I'm in. I love what I do, and I've sort of grown from being an actor and being on set. I take it all in, and I talk to the grips and the Best Boys and talk to lighting guys. I talk to everybody and see what they do and pay close attention.”

“I was lucky enough to know exactly what I wanted to do when I was growing up. I think one of the hardest things to figure out in life is what your calling is, and what truly makes you happy - not what you want to work at, but what you want to do.”

“After a long shoot day, I'm usually wiped. I'll come home and take a hot shower and get off the makeup that had caked itself onto my face.”

“I've been lucky enough in my career to work with a few people who are really prolific.”
