More quotes by Donal Logue
I think in a weird way that the entertainment industry is strangely more brutally honest than any other.
Donal Logue
It was all that stuff about taking your parents' car when you're 13, sneaking booze into rock shows and ditching school with your friends. I could relate to that as a former teenager, rather than as a present parent.
Donal Logue
As the season progresses, it's like the doors open up to all the different worlds that were teased about in the pilot.
Donal Logue
There was something about that form of comedy that's just difficult. It never really felt like you could just fully commit to all the colors that you carry with you.
Donal Logue
The desert feels Irish in a way - lonely and barren. If someone said, 'Think of a happy place for you,' I'd say a glacial plane near the South Pole, the wind howling, nobody in sight, a shack with a pot-belly stove and some tea.
Donal Logue
Fair or not, it always sucks when everyone wanders back from Sundance talking about how bad the movies were.
Donal Logue
Every once in awhile, when you can see shades of the person's real interior life, I think that's interesting.

A college football star, by his senior year, is used to running out there with 110,000 people going nuts. They feel comfortable in that environment. To me, a set feels like that. The one thing that I do know is that, as long as I'm prepared, I know this environment and this world.

I did a pilot for HBO, called One Percent, that they didn't end up picking up, but it was a pretty intense and dramatic piece.
Donal Logue
I love not feeling this hydraulic pressure that you have to create this comic moment within every scene. You can just play it as it is.
Donal Logue
The easiest and most accessible emotion is rage.
Donal Logue
This sounds so bogus, but I would love to, at some point when my kids are in college, is just go do a whole season at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and do a year of plays. Most actors miss the days of live theater.
Donal Logue
There's a certain kind of existential freedom that comes to people who realize that all the things that they hold onto and that they think define them, once they're gone, there's this new freedom to determine the way you're going to live your life.
Donal Logue
One thing that's interesting is that whenever something starts, like the school year when you were a kid, it feels like such a significantly huge time in your life and how much life has changed. What's surprising is how quickly it's going by.
Donal Logue
Well Bill Martin and Mike Schiff were the creators and they knew we had to do a family show. Everybody came at it from the angle of having been a kid and a teenager.
Donal Logue
Then I did The Tao of Steve and that was at Sundance in 2000 where it did really well.
Donal Logue
I have to say that it was a thrilling ride to be on 'Terriers.' It was this odd circumstance where it was really loved by the people it was loved by, but it didn't do well. In fairness to FX, they were just so generous in keeping it on the air the whole year.

I have 52 first cousins. My mom and dad were the only two to move to North America, so I've got deep family there, but I'm a California kid.
Donal Logue
It's always surprised me that the most successful and really amazing shows are also the happiest environments, and very welcoming.
Donal Logue
You can judge a country by the way it treats its prisoners, and you can always judge a show by the way it treats people coming on to do these guest shots.
