More quotes by 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.

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.

Every once in awhile, when you can see shades of the person's real interior life, I think that's interesting.

I'm a professional hanger outer. I'm a super liability, too. I joke around and I'm like a hyper-active child.

No, I'm not a comic book guy. I'm pretty fascinated with the subculture though and I do think that the world of comic books is such a natural transition into film.

I remember working on movies like Gettysburg and feeling that Jeff Daniels was kind of a mentor.

My mom, she's from Ireland, coached tennis in Nigeria when she was a missionary and turned me on to it when I was young.

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.

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.

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 pilots here and there but mostly I was doing little bits in movies.

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.

I'd have to say my favorite thing about working on the show, and something that might be intriguing to other people, is that it's just such an amazingly welcoming environment to work in.

Young actors are pretty fantastic. I can't even imagine doing stuff like that when I was a kid.

I think in a weird way that the entertainment industry is strangely more brutally honest than any other.
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.

Follow your deepest dream, the one you had as a kidbut stay focused.

It's so nerve-wracking to go out into a stadium, feeling a billion eyes upon you when you mess up your touches. That's an overwhelming environment.

Fair or not, it always sucks when everyone wanders back from Sundance talking about how bad the movies were.

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.
