I've been kicking around this business for a long time.

You kick around long enough, and good things can happen.

To do this movie in a watered-down fashion or have these characters be watered down wouldn't have been near as effective. It wouldn't have been staying true to what this 'Watchmen' phenomenon is.

Comedian sort of enjoys the darkness because, essentially, he's a thug. He's just not a nice guy.

I think, before 'Watchmen,' I was the guy from 'Grey's Anatomy' who's a pretty good guy, a pretty charming sweet guy, and so as an actor, I really wanted to do something as far from that as I could.

My background was in graphic design, but when I was doing it, it was all hand-drawn stuff, not computers.

I do some of my best work when I'm dead.

It's mostly women who I get really weird fan mail from.

I've become accustomed to playing the good guy - maybe a rough exterior, but a heart of gold in there somewhere.

I think the challenge for me in this role is going to be, is there any heart in Negan? For me, I look at that as a challenge as an actor, and that's the kind of thing that I embrace and really look forward to.

Within a five-month period, I got 'Weeds,' 'Supernatural,' and 'Grey's.' I think a lot of it had to do with luck.

Some nights, a romantic dinner can be killed by having to do dishes afterward, so it probably suits you better to go out for dinner. But I love cooking and always have.

I've always had a problem showing fear on a film.

I think you judge your career by the scripts that are being sent your way.

I usually play tough guys and stuff like that.

Moths are okay. Actually, moths don't bother me near as much as, say, spiders do.

I was a huge fan of the original Red Dawn. America and brothers, you can't beat that in my world. I think there's nothing greater.

He is scary as the butcher, but you will not meet a lovelier, more interesting guy than Danny Huston. His stories leave me spellbound. I adore him.

Being an actor is a crazy way to spend one's life. It's the love of the game. Blind luck has a lot to do with it. Then you hope when you get your shot that you know what you're doing.

I literally will write Shonda Rhimes, the creator of 'Grey's,' an e-mail once a month or so and just say, 'Hey, I love you and thank you.' That was my moment. Because of that, I'm doing 'Magic City.'

It's just as easy for me to be building a fence somewhere and scraping by on unemployment in between doing a guest star spot. I've been there.

I have a lot of respect for what I do, for this profession.

What's special about Miami is the collision of cultures. And the white sand beaches and fantastic restaurants.

If it's football season, all things sort of stop. I'm from Seattle, so I'll watch the Seahawks and whatever other game that day is worthy.

I love myself a truffle. I can put a truffle in anything and make it good.

I've got a love affair with Harley-Davidson. One of my earliest photos with my dad is of him holding me as a baby on his bike.

I love the challenge of having an audience know what you're thinking without having to tell the audience what you're thinking.

If I could just make Westerns for the rest of my life, that's all I would do. It's my favorite movie to make. There's something about being a cowboy.

I've worked with kids that are just horrendous, and it's mostly because of their parents.

I live in the woods, so really the only way you can get to me is if you send a letter.

My agent will say, 'Well, it's another graphic novel.' I don't care. It's better writing than anything else that's out there. The characters are much better.

I feel like if you shoot one scene all day long or you take two days to do a scene, that scene is going to be stale.

The great thing about Starz is that there's not a lot of restrictions.

I haven't watched a lot of episodes of 'The Good Wife.' I never even saw the show until I signed on, and then I watched seven episodes.

I don't think I could last in anything for 10 years doing a character.

If you outsmart your audience, you're going to lose them.

I grew up with my uncle's comic books at my grandma's house, so I've always loved my comic book reading.

I was an artist - I fancied myself an artist - I sold paintings at bars to pay my rent.

Vaccines save lives; fear endangers them. It's a simple message parents need to keep hearing.

The mind and the body are inextricably entwined, and rarely are their inseparability clearer than when we're under some kind of mental pressure. The moment we start trying to learn a new skill, make a decision or otherwise think on our feet, our nervous system reacts - with accelerated pulse rate, increased respiration, even sweating.

Suffering is always hard to quantify - especially when the pain is caused by as cruel a disease as Alzheimer's. Most illnesses attack the body; Alzheimer's destroys the mind - and in the process, annihilates the very self.

Scarily, football helmets, which do a fine job of protecting against scalp laceration and skull fracture, do little to prevent concussions and may even exacerbate them, since even as the brain is rattling around inside the skull, the head is rattling around inside the helmet.

Your parents leave you too soon and your kids and spouse come along late, but your siblings know you when you are in your most inchoate form.

A fishnet is made up of a lot more holes than strings, but you can't therefore argue that the net doesn't exist. Just ask the fish.

Spare a thought for the poor introverts among us. In a world of party animals and glad-handers, they're the ones who stand by the punch bowl. In a world of mixers and pub crawls, they prefer to stay home with a book. Everywhere around them, cell phones ring and e-mails chime and they just want a little quiet.

Everybody loves to spend money at least some of the time - because everybody loves the stuff you can buy with it. The key to the pleasure level of any transaction is the balance between the pain of the payment and the reward of the purchased object.

Narcissism falls along the axis of what psychologists call personality disorders, one of a group that includes antisocial, dependent, histrionic, avoidant and borderline personalities. But by most measures, narcissism is one of the worst, if only because the narcissists themselves are so clueless.

Overspending is as certain a part of the holiday season as overeating. But pushing away from both the table and the cash register at least a little bit sooner can make the post-holiday hangover hurt a little bit less.

Certainly, people can get along without siblings. Single children do, and there are people who have irreparably estranged relationships with their siblings who live full and satisfying lives, but to have siblings and not make the most of that resource is squandering one of the greatest interpersonal resources you'll ever have.

Well, I think of the folks who are the climate deniers as the flat Earthers and the people who say the moon landings never happened.
