I'm just a geeky, goofy person.

I did a play I think my first six months on the show, called Bullpen. Then I got involved with Theater Forty and did this play called Plastic which is about two male models coming to a casting call.

Soap Actors are fun and interesting. They all have something special that you want to be around.

I think comedy is more my instinct and more what I'm geared towards.

Doing that, then doing a lot of theater, which I love. Doing guest stars, did two independent films that are going around to all these festivals. Both of them are going to be at the Lake Tahoe Film Festival.

The number one thing I've been doing is being daddy.

I think any actor would agree that you can't replace theater. It's immediate. You have the energy of the crowd and every single night it's different.

I'm just a geeky, goofy person.

Especially when you deal with comedy, you have got to be really honest because it's the honesty and the spontaneity that causes people to chuckle, that catches people.

Then I contacted Ken, then he called me back, then we had a great meeting. Then he called and asked if I would come back to the show. Which was awesome.

As an actor, that's the best thing you can do, really take people along on a story and tell them something.

Ever since I got on Days I've been doing theater.

I think it makes a lot of sense and of course I love Christie Clark. I think she's awesome; she's beautiful and fun to work with. I think she has some really unique qualities to her that would bring a lot to the show.

I started reading the Bible. All of a sudden the words jumped off the page and became real.

I would like to have opportunities in my career to do parts that people would remember - either the whole character or certain moments that they personally could really connect to or were really affected by it deeply.

Just put one foot in front of the other.

My sons have such a deep access to my heart.

Shows have asked a lot of actors to take cuts. Shows are going off the air. So okay, life goes on.

If the past has been an obstacle and a burden, knowledge of the past is the safest and the surest emancipation.

I am a medical scientist, not a practical physician.

Singing is about telling a story. When you are onstage, you get to be your own self... When acting, you're someone else.

I hope I'm not a tourist attraction - I'm sure that they come here really because St. Andrews is just amazing, a beautiful place.

Cherish the beauty and cherish the pain both will give you experience and you will never be the same.

Because my business life is so busy my home is really my sanctuary. That is where I reflect and spend quality time with my girls.

The American Museum of Natural History is my son's absolute favorite place in the world! So we really, really, really love New York.

The ceremony took six minutes. The marriage lasted about the same amount of time though we didn't get a divorce for almost a year.

The last thing we need is efforts by some politicians and the NRA to arm educators and allow more guns in our schools.

Help one another; there's no time like the present and no present like the time.

Every President that went to China, I would meet them and have dinner and talk about the past and the future. That was in the '70s.

I live in the moment, and I reflect later.

I was never a huge 007 fan, but I sure liked Sean Connery. I'm sure Pierce Brosnan is good and has his moments, but I've not seen him; I've only seen bits and pieces on TV, so I can't really judge. Pierce looks very natural in the role.

I have never in my life found myself in a situation where I've stopped work and said, 'Thank God it's Friday.' But weekends are special even if your schedule is all over the place. Something tells you the weekend has arrived and you can indulge yourself a bit.

Poetry is a pure meritocracy. There's no room for ambiguity: either a poem moves you and opens up new vistas in life, or it doesn't. It's completely objective, and the best always rise to the top.

Let me say at the outset that I do not reflexively oppose international trade.

I rely on my instincts and intuition, and I feel it's so imperative for people to follow not the path but their path.

I'm allergic to doing the obvious thing.

It may be too late for West Virginia to save itself from the ravages of Big Coal. But it's not too late for America.

We need a president who is willing to uphold the law.

For me, my glory is but a humble ephemeral absinthe drunk on the sly, with fear of treason and if I drink no longer, it is for good reason!

The first half of the 1960s was the apogee of what might be termed the Age of Cool - as defined by that quality of being simultaneously with-it and disengaged, in control but nonchalant, knowing but ironically self-aware, and above all inscrutably undemonstrative.

Small debts are like small shot they are rattling on every side and can scarcely be escaped without a wound great debts are like cannon of loud noise but little danger.

I won't let people write anything they want to about me.
