L.A. to me is not really an attractive place.

My sister is a nurse and saves people's lives.

I wanted more in depth ideas about the character and it never came.

It makes you realise that people are the same wherever you go.

Everything has an end.

That's sort of what I like about this character is that he's not the good guy, he's not truly the bad guy.

Comedy and drama are both challenging to me.

It's not that fun to just play a villain, without any reasoning behind it.

I'm trying to do the kind of projects that I want to see in the theatre.

L.A. to me is not really an attractive place.

And I've been lucky in that I haven't had another job besides acting in the last five years.

It seems there's a sliding scale between the money they spend on a movie and its creativity.

I really enjoy the people. I find them to be better educated and wittier.

My heritage is English, so I'm proud to be back here.

You can be in an acting class all you want, but you don't fully learn until you get off that stage and in front of a camera.

There's one site where you can buy pictures of me for five bucks a pop.

Certainly, when I walk into an audition, a lot of people already know who I am.

We both have a great loyalty to it, and I think that it's important to give it our best shot.

Supporting characters add depth to a story, and great actors leave their imprint with the audience.

I'm living in L.A. but my heart's in Vancouver.

I would like to look back on my career and be proud of what I've done.

When I'm on my deathbed, I'll hopefully be able to count more friends than parts that I had.

At Christmas, 'It's a Wonderful Life' makes me cry in exactly the same places every time, even though I know it's coming.

So, I completely and utterly support David and Gillian's decision to go to Los Angeles, but I think that Vancouver is the perfect location for the show.

I just wanted to act. I didn't want to do anything else.

It changed my life in a lot of ways - before I got that role I was just going from job to job, not really having enough money to be able to do what I wanted to do.

I think somebody who speaks the language is going to notice immediately that I'm not Russian.

When you're doing a series like this, you're constantly looking for new ways to excite your audience.

Two shows at once is crazy, but I love it.

I think everyone has some fascination with what's outside our existence. It's a constant journey to find the truth.

I've spent so much time the last seven, eight years in Los Angeles, away from my family, away from my friends, away from the city that is my favourite place to be and I just want to come here and have a proper life.

I don't care what TV show you work on, even a movie for that matter, it's all about time and money eventually.

My goal is to be living back in Canada as soon as I can, hopefully somewhere in the Gulf Islands.

I felt that K wasn't getting a fair shake anyway.

It's certainly more interesting for me as an actor, but I think it's also more interesting for the audience to see three-dimensional characters, rather than just a bad guy or a good guy.

We went to the British Museum, and I was looking up my family in the books - pages and pages on it.

We both have a great loyalty to it and I think that its important to give it our best shot.

I think everyone has some fascination with whats outside our existence. Its a constant journey to find the truth.

As an only child, I may have been alone a lot, but I was never lonely. My invisible friends were my constant companions.

The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive, but in finding something to live for.

The willow which bends to the tempest, often escapes better than the oak which resists it; and so in great calamities, it sometimes happens that light and frivolous spirits recover their elasticity and presence of mind sooner than those of a loftier character.

People who fail to use their emotional intelligence skills are more likely to turn to other, less effective means of managing their mood. They are twice as likely to experience anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and even thoughts of suicide.

I always wanted to have my own company. It was a psychological issue.

I was always inundated with music, whether it be my mother's favorites like Fleetwood Mac and Carole King and the Carpenters, or my dad's jazz music.

The modern individual is committed to being successful, not to being a person. He belongs rightly to the 'action generation' whose motto is 'do more but feel less.'

Being handsome wasnt much of a burden. It worked for me.

The media was always so focused on the money a movie makes. But I was in Times Square, and a bunch of Japanese tourists looked at me and started shouting, 'Toula!' I loved it. It's these tiny moments of connection that register with me the most and always have.

Whenever I've been well-known or hitting the press, I've always had to get my credit card out to prove I'm Damien Hirst.

I view the experiences that I have had - both tough ones and the pleasant ones - as gifts. They've been full of lessons. And I've learned to be open to those lessons.
