I'm blessed to have a family, so it's not like I'm twiddling my thumbs. When I'm not working, that's where all my attention comes.

I consider 'White Collar' my home base. I'm so lucky to get to play a character that's very multifaceted and the writers take risks on and never get into a staid process with.

How can you not have preconceived notions and expectations of who Kelsey Grammer is gonna be? He's been in my living room since my TV was on. And he exceeded them all, somehow. He's such a beautiful and open-hearted collaborator and mentor and such a great family man. I was just lucky to get to work with him and learn from him.

I remember I was really, really proud the first moment I got my insurance and also just going in to get my SAG card and filling out the form and realizing I was a member of all the unions I could be a part of as an actor. It was a really fulfilling experience for me.

I think anyone who's ever gone through adolescence and wanted something from their parents knows the basic tenets of a con.

I have, like, three suits to my name. But one thing I've learned is that when you dress up in real life, people treat you differently.

Making a great television show is hard enough. To also tackle F. Scott - whoa.

One of the things about the con artist lifestyle is that all the romance is sort of sloppy and fast and loose.

Outside of, as a kid, just wanting to be able to fly and run faster than a speeding locomotive and being able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, we'd like to hope that, when push comes to shove, we can do the right thing. I think as long as there is that hope in our society and in the zeitgeist of superheroes, Superman will be relevant.

Our high school offered a comprehensive drama department where I was doing 'Angels in America' at 14.

Everyone needs a reset button so you can start your day without anxiety. For some people, it's running; for some, it's going to the gym. For me, it's meditation.

I have more faith in Santa Claus now than I do an exec.

It's all about communication and a dialogue between individuals - get rid of the labels, get rid of the shame, get rid of the stigmas and just be your most authentic self.

One of the ways I learned how to act, really, is by having secrets and having to function as a kid in a public school in suburban Bible Belt Texas.

Unfortunately, in some parts of the country, some kids are taught at an early age that being different is somehow bad or wrong or worthy of ridicule.

My grandma blows my mind. To me, she exemplifies what a loving, accepting Christian is.

Human imagination is so much more potent than anything we could put down in words.

Cote de Pablo is one of my best friends! We went to college together.

I did a one-off episode of 'The New Normal' for Ryan Murphy, and that was the first time I played a gay role.

If you're wearing suits and you want to create your own sense of style, get to the tailor.

I'm so thankful to have been born in the times that we live in.

I had two wonderful teachers: Sanford Melsner and Fred Kareman.

Acting was far from my world. I rarely saw a play. I never met a real actress; they seemed unreal.

I think the secret to what Jim Henson did, ultimately, is that he understood how to cut through to the... I know this sounds corny... but the child inside of you.
