You never really learn much from hearing yourself speak.
It’s incredibly unfair. You don’t see a lot of 60-year-old women with 20-year-old men onscreen.
I know what my limitations are as an actor, but my strength is putting myself into a well-written part. When I get in trouble is when I have to fix it, or when I have to carry it on personality.
I was in a bar and I said to a friend, ‘You know, we’ve become those 40-year-old guys we used to look at and say, ‘Isn’t it sad?’
I’d think,’In a relationship, we should never have his kind of fight.’ Then, instead of figuring out how to make it work, I looked for a way to get out of it. The truth is, you shouldn’t be married if your that kind of person.
I get asked a lot about getting into politics. I say, ‘Take a look at politics. You tell me what seems appealing about that.’
I was watching ‘Up In The Air’ and I thought, ‘Jesus, who’s the old gray-haired guy?’ And it was me. I never wear makeup for movies and now it’s starting to show.
I love children and I get along with them great. It’s just that I believe if you’re going to be a parent, there has to be something inside you that says, ‘I want a family.’ I don’t feel that sense of urgency.
The only failure is not to try.
I grew up in the world of bad television, on my dad’s sets and then as a young schmuck on dating shows and so on.
