As an actor, you get hired for what you last did. And I guess it just becomes your choice or obligation to do different things.

I'm in bed by nine. Let's get on with it.

If I'm enjoying something, I'd like to be able to just have it all. Frankly, that's the way I'm approaching my career now. I'm a total workaholic.

I'd worked so hard that by the time I was 20, I wanted to play hard. And I did that really well.

I play around with my Japanese Garden. Since Im half way to 70 today I need to start pruning trees and sharpening plants like an old fart.

I love a massage. I'd go every day if I could.

I don't worry about people misinterpreting my kindness for weakness.

I just love doing sitcoms. I'd be in them till I was gray if they'd have me.

I'm not a 'celebrity'. I'm not a big huge star and so when people see me it's usually to talk about something I've done and that's a great conversation to have.

Directing a movie is the greatest job in the world. I could not be more envious of the guys who get to do it all the time.

I don't really find a problem with technology or television, or anything. I'm a product of it. I grew up watching TV, and I don't think I'm too dumb or too crazy.

I'm not a Hollywood party guy.

I don't have anything to fix! I don't smoke, I don't drink, and I don't eat carbs. My life is just great now. Normal. Vanilla.

My hobbies have varied over the years. There were a whole set of new ones before I got married. Now I spend as much time with my wife, who is my best friend.

I actually enjoyed changing diapers and I enjoyed swaddling. I don't mind being swaddled either, on occasion.

I can be on a telephone call, and be emailing or texting somebody else, as well. I would imagine everyone appreciates that efficiency of communication. I see it as a huge positive.

I like being hired to do more and more stuff. Carry more and more responsibility. It's nice I'm getting that trust.

I'm not much of a party guy anymore.

I think anybody who's doing work in their teen years on TV or in the movies, you're a teen idol by default.

What's frustrating as an actor, when you want to work hard, you can only work once that phone rings and then you can only work until the production wraps. Then you have to find another job.

I love a massage. I'd go every day if I could. I don't need to be wrapped in herbs like a salmon fillet, but I do love a massage.

It's a really exciting thing to collaborate with production designers, cinematographers and gaffers and costume designers and editors and composers.

Actors, by very definition, we want people to pay attention to us, and so usually, that comes in the package of insecurity. So if we're not comfortable, we don't really show you a lot.

On the whole, a director who make the set a comfortable place to work is really important, whether it's a comedy or drama.

Music is such an incredibly affecting part of any movie-going experience, and it just... it shapes your whole experience.

I enjoy editing when I'm directing, but when someone else is directing, that's their film to cut.

We had, like, the greatest time you could ever imagine doing 'Arrested Development.' And as grateful as we are for the careers we have afterwards, it was - we still miss it.

I look at whatever the finish line is for the character and then kind of act backwards from that and play him in such a way so that that finish line is more rewarding.

I was very surprised to get a reading for 'Arrested Development' because it really seemed to be the opposite of that which I was known for doing.

The people at Netflix are extremely intelligent about the way they monitor activity on their platform.

I'm looking forward to playing Michael Bluth many, many more times.

I owe everything to 'Arrested Development.' It just shows that everybody is kind of a job away from having relevance again.

I really appreciate comedy a lot.

My family is pretty funny. My mother is British, so she's got a very dry sense of humor. That's where I got that from.

Pre-production and post-production is something that I've never been exposed to. I was pleasantly surprised that you could accomplish a lot during pre-production.

To have the privileged position of being the guy who is responsible for shaping the entire experience for an audience as opposed to being just one instrument in that orchestra, being an actor, it's all-encompassing.

Directing films is incredibly exciting to me.

My upbringing as a child was very atypical.

I haven't met a lot of 'Hogan Family' fans.

I don't want to be obnoxious with my ambition or sound like I expect any sort of entitlement here. Hollywood is not in the business of humoring people.

Actors are sellers, and I figured out a long time ago that if you wanted to work a lot, you had to be on the buying side.

You hit those valleys sometimes and it's really frustrating. It's like getting stuck in traffic on the freeway. But there's not much you can do about it.

That's kind of the fun part about acting. We do get the right to kind of get from A to Z any way we want, as long as we start at A and end at Z.

I'm a pretty normal guy. I'm really good at knowing how a normal guy would react in situations.

I think you get the parts that people are comfortable with seeing you play.

I think NBC got a little reluctant to get behind single-camera shows after 'Scrubs' didn't do what they thought it was going to do following 'Friends.'

If you make a mistake, people are going to know about it really fast - and I was making a ton of them when I was a kid.

It was a blast. I was doing everything that teenagers do and everything people in their twenties do. I was playing as hard as I was working, which was an effort to really balance my life.

I was doing everything that a kid would be doing anyway, but on top of that, I was able to fly to different cities.

You want 100% and 100% to make 200, instead of 50 and 50 making 100.
