I like bothering people and stirring things up.

I never had the desire to get in front of the camera. It never occurred to me! I always thought I'd be a theater actor.

I have this burgeoning reputation for playing a scumbag.

I love babies - I love being with them. As for acting with them, it's kind of hard because they don't know how to act.

I just can't stand the fact that they're going out on their own - I love having my kids around, and I'm angry at them for going out and becoming independent. I want to tuck them in and drive them to school in the morning, but they just won't let me do that anymore.

I love getting on the subway because you get on the car, and you see the entire human race represented in any given subway car.

I have a beautiful wooden Superman statue with a removable cape - I really love that piece.

I love exploring the relationship between fathers and daughters. I think that's a special thing, especially with daughters who are dealing with being adults.

It's become a cliche to think of marriage as a disaster area and a war zone.

It's ironic, really, because I've spent the bulk of my career making my living in a very commercial realm: network television. And yet, my sensibilities don't necessarily line up with how I pay my rent.

It's not like I walk around being Superman in real life. But when you read the script and put yourself in the position that Superman is in - I mean, he's always saving the planet, for God's sake. When you realize that, it's not difficult to take the gravitas of the situation and make your voice do what it needs to do.

Wings' was a blessing, but it was also very difficult. Whenever you do situation comedy, no matter how excellent the execution - and we had a great cast and great writers - but the format is somewhat limited.
