“I think it would be lovely to see some features on a disc of ‘The Rocketeer,’ with some reminiscing. I think that would be dynamite.”

This is one of the ways in which television can actually be good, and even better than the movies, because it gives you a chance to tell a long story.

Everything about acting is a challenge. I’m self-conscious. You couldn’t do anything to cause me to be more self-conscious than to stick a camera in my face and have 60 people standing behind it, waiting for me to perform.

Four key words–helped make my dreams come true. They are: dedication, balance, risk, and love.

I would love to see a sequel to ‘The Rocketeer.’ I’d love to see that! I don’t know that I would be in it.

Some of the best auditions I’ve ever had have been when my agent called and said, ‘They want you 20 minutes ago, in an office in Century City, to see you for something.’

To me, the AMC brand is great storytelling – they call it slow-burn storytelling.

The first trip I remember taking was on the train from Virginia up to New York City, watching the summertime countryside rolling past the window. They used white linen tablecloths in the dining car in those days, and real silver.

If I ever get married, I’d like to pick a place so hard to reach that only a few people would turn up-like the North Pole.

Oh, I’m nerdy about science fiction and fantasy and graphic novels and reading, and I’m nerdy about board games.

On land, you can walk away from people, from unpleasant situations. But when you’re on a ship for 14 months with 49 other people, if you don’t resolve your issues it literally could mean – and this would be an extreme circumstance – the sinking of the ship.

I don’t have any complex plans for playing a character. I think all I try to do is not make too many bad guy faces and not ever try to seem too good. I just try to put it in the middle somewhere.

I pretend I’m the producer and I think, “If I was making this movie, would I cast myself in this part?,” and if that doesn’t feel right to me, then I don’t even go audition for it.

My favorite board game is a board game I’m working on right now. It’s a game of Napoleonic era naval warfare, and it’s going to be fun.

The South Downs of England reminded me a bit of my Old Virginia homeland.

A destination wedding weeds out all the people who might potentially get their noses out of joint, so only the troupers would be there.

I grew up 60 minutes way from Richmond, in Charlottesville, Virginia and, as a child, I was obsessed with the Civil War. I used to do re-enactments and all that stuff.

I’m not an overnight success. I’ve been doing it for 12 years. It’s been lovely and varied so far.

I’m very excited about all the offers and interest and support pouring in through crowd-funding, and about having a lovely gap coming up when I’ll finally be able to sit down with books and scripts and talk to my partners about how we take the company forward.

I do get stopped on the street, although rarely. And they always have something lovely to say.

I’d never even been to Wrigley Field. I never even enjoyed baseball that much, but I loved being there, the crowd was lovely, and they all sang with me!

I’d love to win a Grammy! Not ambitious or anything. And just having a really lovely bunch of kids and a happy family life, would be good for me.

It’s unresolved conflict in my life that I have a lovely family and a risky job.

Oh, I wish I lived in a caravan!’ said Jimmy longingly. ‘How lovely it must be to live in a house that has wheels and can go away down the lanes and through the towns, and stand still in fields at night!

That’s the really neat thing about Dan Quayle, as you must have realized from the first moment you looked into those lovely blue eyes: impeachment insurance.
