• "I believe you have a responsibility to comport yourself in a manner that gives an example to others. As a young man, I prayed for success. Now I pray just to be worthy of it."
• "I've also never understood that 'in season, out of season' thing. If something looks good, why not wear it?"
• "I've never understood what the word 'hunk' means."
• "Embrace your dorkdom, or rail against it. The choice is yours."
• "Work from yourself. Play what you know. Be confident. Speak loudly. Mind your P's and Q's. Walk the Dog. Have courage."
• "It's been said that I'm the type of actor who's willing to commit to anything. I mean FULLY."
• "I snuck into George of The Jungle probably 12 times with a baseball hat and glasses on just to listen to the audience reaction... it does my old heart good."
• "I endeavor to make my acting choices as honest as possible."
• "I guess what you would define as darkness serves a purpose: to show us that there is redemption through chaos."
• "I'm a pretty agreeable fellow."
• "I think a star should be a ball of contradictions. Contradictions are a ball."
• On what makes his marriage successful: "Being in love, I guess. And spending time with one another and listening. And having large bunches of flowers."
• "I keep an eye on working with people who I think I can get something positive from and share a good experience with. It's great."

• Seattle International Film Festival: Golden Space Needle Award - Best Actor, STILL BREATHING (1997)
