I wasn't attractive when I was growing up, and I don't think I am now.

I'm very professional.

I did enjoy theater. I actually do prefer making films and television, but it was a learning experience for me, because I got into television at 5 and film at 11, and theater was something I completely bypassed.

I think as an actor you're always learning, you're always trying to experience more things.

I've always been interested in science. I used to take watches apart and clocks apart, and there's little screws, and a little this and that, and I found out if I dropped one of them, that thing ain't gonna work.

But a science is exact to the extent that its method measures up to and is adequate to its object.

For a member to say, 'I'm a lame duck' violates political science 101.

The Discovery of France' by Graham Robb is teaching me lots about a country I've long loved but realise I didn't really know.
