I think [The Outsiders] really forged who I am as an actor, and it’s one of the reasons why I keep being drawn to big ensembles where I’m surrounded by strong, successful actors or personalities. Because that was my initial foray into movie making.

Contrary to popular belief, I don’t go out very much. When I do go out, a lot of times it’ll be to something like a heavyweight fight, and I’ll be photographed, so that people have this conception that I go out a lot.

That chemistry that we had [with Fred Savage] is very, very hard to find. We were lucky to have those 22 episodes [of The Grinder]. I’m unendingly proud of it.

Actually, if I had to do it over [leaving the show the West Wing], I’d do the same thing, because lost in the shuffle of it is that Aaron [Sorkin] left the same year I did. And I would not have wanted to be on The West Wing with somebody else writing it.
