“But there are people who are way better at it than I am.”

When I go back in to re-record a line. I’m the icing on the cake, but the cake is the thing.

It’s a different thing to just be a voice.

On a plane or on a train, or whatever, you see people with their headphones and they’re looking at their iPhone or their Galaxy.

The power lies in who can say no the most. But, real power, though, lies in the opportunity to say yes.

This cross-section of people they just happen to bring in to decide the fate of mankind on television is really scary.

People are ready to do either, and the content has to work on both.

I know that the vitriol and hyperbole that exists online, and the anonymity, can be deadly because it’s cloaked in negativity and it’s brutal sometimes.

More and more people are watching entertainment on their phones.

And then, there are the producers and the writers and the director on the other side of the glass, and what they want.

You have to be malleable to what’s going to work, and you have to stay in the framework of the context.

I wasn’t really a big comic book guy, growing up. I watched cartoons, but the choices were a whole heck of a lot slimmer.

If you ever go behind the glass and look at the focus groups that are deciding what you’re gonna watch, it’s scary.

People ultimately get what they deserve on TV.

I think people ultimately realize that, but not when they’re in the spotlight.

Nine times out of ten, I’m trying to meet someone else’s expectations, whether it’s the director or the writer or the animator

What people end up watching is what the advertising end up glomming onto and promoting.

Let me tell you, my friend, that there are things done today in electrical science which would have been deemed unholy by the very man who discovered electricity, who would themselves not so long before been burned as wizards

A bad hair day for me is when it gets flat and greasy.

I wouldn’t do the ‘Magic Hour’ again, but I would do TV again. The ‘Magic Hour’ is not me.

I cannot live with someone who can’t live without me.

If, every day, I dare to remember that I am here on loan, that this house, this hillside, these minutes are all leased to me, not given, I will never despair.

All this stuff is kind of surreal to me – Ididn’t think I’d be in the league or none of that. It was making it to college. That’s about it.

The one thing that I always try and take with me, if there’s, like, a remake, or you’re doing something again, is that every generation has a new story to tell.

I’m me, I live from film to mouth.
