I was a very shy child.

It was just wet, not stinky?

I love seeing tennis up close.

I'm not crazy. My mother had me tested!

Someone else's success is not your failure.

Well, I'm a big believer in 'never say never.

The Big Bang Theory' has completely changed my life.

I don't think the jet-setting life is really for most people.

I want to drive! I love to drive! I drive at home in Barbados.

I'm also a big American Idol fan. I think it's just great fun.

If I ever wrote a script myself, it would be strongly emotional material.

My favorite sci-fi movie of all time is 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind.'

I feel like the universe is so big it'd be foolish to pull out the "no" for it.

I think in any form of acting, you're always well served if you've done theater.

Coffee is to wake up, coffee is to work with, coffee is to live with, coffee is life

I had a very strong interest in music, specifically the piano from a very small age.

I've grown out of dancing in my car - is it sad? Or I've just become a better driver!

Home is where you feel unjudged, and where what I do isn't necessarily stupid or wrong.

I think intelligence is usually sexy until it becomes irritating. After that, you're stuck.

My hiatus timeline is so minimal, there's only a select number of projects that I can go in for.

I'm only human, and therefore, there's a part of me that's waiting for people to say, 'Enough of you!'

The TV schedule is essentially four or five days to get in touch with the story you're doing that week.

Theatre was my first love. I can't take the theatre out of me. And I wouldn't want to. To me, it's home.

I've always loved TV very much, and as a child I was so religious with it, but now it's more when it fits in.

I couldn't tell you a good, bad or ugly pilot just from reading it, but I can tell you a character I want to play.

All I can do is keep working, keep auditioning, keep talking to people - and whatever it takes to show other colors.

I've been a working actor for many years, but it's not always been successful for me. I certainly struggled in the past.

To have a job you can count on as an actor is so rare, whether that means belonging to a regional theater company or being on TV.

In L.A., I have more of a yard existence, and so I enjoy walking my two little dogs in New York - one's a Maltese and the other's a Shih Tzu.

Every time I think about writing, comedy doesn't interest me in the slightest. I can play comedy, but I don't think in terms of comic dialogue.

Once, I lived in an apartment with a skylight in the bathroom. Every winter, it would snow through the skyline, but we got a discount because of it.

The theater I got to do informs every move I make as an actor and will for the rest of my life. I can't shake it if I wanted to, but I don't want to.

As a human being, you know that there are some days when you'd rather not talk to anybody - but I can't really do that anymore without appearing rude.

I try to master every facet of a character in order to build a safety net for myself, so I can go on to take more risks to create someone really distinct.

I've done so much theater, and yet I never had an experience like 'The Normal Heart.' We could feel the reaction of the audience every night. It was visceral.

When I first started out in Houston, it was theater or bust. And I loved it. I still love it. And then I went to undergraduate and graduate school for acting.

You learn a lot as a kid, like you don't know anything. I didn't know what was gonna happen if I opened the door. I thought I was gonna be in another world somehow.

When suddenly everybody is guessing, or some even getting close, to the ballpark of what you're earning - well, that's interesting, that everyone knows what you make.

I was very fascinated with meteorology at a young age. I lived on the Gulf Coast and hurricanes blew through there. That is the class I failed in college: meteorology.

Being in TV, we get to do it again and again until it's 'right.' There's a part of me that likes the other way, that aspect of theatre where there's no chance to go back.

There's no audience to wonderfully get in your way when you're doing a single-camera anything, whether it's a sitcom or drama or film. And I do mean that in the best way.

It's a shame, but every time I get something scientific in the script, I read up to find out what I'm talking about - but then I'm on to the next script and it's forgotten.

The whole time I've been an actor, from early in Houston, my goal has been to work - to keep doing it. I feel at my most satisfied as a human being when I'm working on a role.

Apparently, all I do is walk my dogs. In L.A., I have more of a yard existence, and so I enjoy walking my two little dogs in New York - one's a Maltese and the other's a Shih Tzu.

I did have a Twitter account that I tried for a couple days, but found I had nothing to say. There are some interesting facts I could share, but I don't want to share that part of myself.

My Emmy competition is awfully good. My stomach is already in knots. The problem is that I don't drink, so I can't calm myself that way. I wish I could be better at pretending I don't care.

What this is about is hopefully an opportunity for me to help pave the way for my future in terms of getting financially choosier. You have to plan the windfall as if it'll be your only one.
