I'm lucky to have a wife and a child that keep me grounded.

My dad wanted to name me after Rainier Maria Rilke, the poet.

Pretty much anybody who's ever worked can relate to our show.

Dwight is a sad clown. You've seen those paintings of sad clown.

We live in a really racist culture and it's got to be addressed.

Some of the biggest movie stars in the world are essentially characters.

I know what I look like - a weird, sad clown puppet. I'm fine with that.

I grew up watching comedy. It was among all the geeky things that I did.

My mom was an actress in the local Seattle theater doing experimental plays.

I'm about as big a star as the Baha'i faith has got, which is pretty pathetic.

I want to keel over on stage playing King Lear at age 99 or something like that.

Absolutely. I am a father, and I know best. If there's any question, just ask me.

I joined an acting class in my junior year in high school. I'd always wanted to try it.

You meet people in Hollywood that are famous, and you're not sure what they got famous for.

I like playing misfits, I like playing oddballs, I like playing characters with rough edges.

My body has been making women laugh for the last 20 years and I'm happy to continue to oblige.

I've always been terrible on regular sitcoms with lots of jokes. I don't know how to tell jokes.

Music is universal too. Even deaf people like to dance, love rhythm, and can kind of pick it up.

The bonds we create in the household are the most important and lasting. Savor them; they're sacred.

I don't want to sound pretentious, but I love art, I like to go to museums, and I like to read books.

My whole thing is I just always wanted to be a working actor and I just wanted to stop waiting tables.

I have an eight-year-old child, and I literally can't wrap my mind around the kind of grief that must be felt when you lose a child.

Singing and dancing is not just for the cast of 'Glee'. We can wake up doing both and have it be a natural expression of who we are.

I like being a Baha'i who has an out-there sense of humor. God gives us talents and faculties, and making people laugh is one of mine.

What's interesting is the show allows for the awkward pauses to be captured, which makes it stylistically unique, especially for American audiences.

I had bohemian parents in Seattle in the last '60s living in a houseboat. My dad wrote science fiction novels and painted big murals and oil paintings.
