“That’s the wonder of the internet. It’s the power of numbers: get enough people to retweet something, someone might see it.”

I never really thought of myself as being an action hero or a leading man, or any of that. I’m a character actor.

When I first started, I just wanted to work. I wouldn’t necessarily do anything, but I’d pretty much almost do anything at the very beginning.

I’ve grown so much, not just as an actor, but as a human being.

Yeah, I left Idaho at 17. You know, I graduated high school a year early and just, you know, the typical story, packed up my car and moved out.

Thank you, Hollywood, for allowing me to be part of your group.

I have 14 nieces and nephews.

I’m a character actor.

I’m obsessed with concerts.

I’m not a leading man.

I filmed myself drunk, just to see what I’m like. I watched so many funny videos of people drunk on YouTube.

I think by eighth grade I knew I wanted to be an actor. I’d done church plays and stuff, but my first actual acting class was in eighth grade. I was obsessed with it.

What’s so great about television. You’re able to tell a long story, where you couldn’t really do that in a film because you have to tell a story in an hour and a half or two hours.

I mean, I’ve never really had much security, to be honest.

There’s the really angry drunk, who’s just annoying to be around. I prefer the drunk who falls all over the place and is being completely inappropriate. Or the super-loud, happy drunk, which is evidentially what I am.

The best way to watch Breaking Bad is in the fetal position, sobbing.

When I go to set, I try to make it a warm, inviting and happy set. We’re all coming to work creating something, hopefully, beautiful together.

The strange thing about grinding that might surprise many people is that you can grind things and shape them using materials that are generally somewhat softer than the thing you’re grinding and shaping.

I was a born troublemaker and might as well earn a living at it.

I have never met a vampire personally, but I don’t know what might happen tomorrow.

The latest computer modeling I’ve seen indicates that at mid-century, there might be 150 million people classified as “environmental refugees.”

As cruel as life might be at times, if you throw in the towel, which is what everyone will expect, then nothing good will happen and your life will fall apart. Be better than that!

And when I told my sons I might be in City of Ember, they said, ‘Oh! You’re gonna be the mayor?’ And I hadn’t even read the script yet.

God would grant all of us wisdom, calm, and peace, that his presence would be in the operating room, and that his will might be done.

The basic problem with the new species of global institutions is that they have not yet become aware of themselves as living.
