As an actress, you're living something through the duration of the play and its geography. I've always seen writing the same way. It's like somehow I'm moving through the terrain of the book as a performer.

I just really committed to trying to never repeat myself. I'd seen actors do that on films, and I was, like, I wanna try that once!

I've been divorced and I had to get back out there be single again and do some of that in the genuinely miserable state where you really do wonder what the hell is going on. And you feel like trying to have casual conversation with someone you don't know on the surface of the moon or something.
Hank Azaria

I tend to not watch things that are current. And then if everybody swears it's amazing then I'll like watch the whole series in a weekend.

There's no experience like on-the-job training.
Hank Azaria

A lot of times, when I record with a group, I'll stay after class for another hour or two and go, 'Let me try a bunch of things I was thinking of, as you were doing that.'

When you're on a series that's been cancelled, there's a little bit of a stink on you.

You know those award shows. The cliche is that it's an honor just to be nominated, but that happens to be true. Whoever wins it in the end, I don't know, sometimes it feels arbitrary. Sometimes it feels like it's deserving.

Politics is topical - it's what's happening now, and we can either respond in the present or avoid it.
Hank Azaria
Image
It's always impressive when talented comedians are easy laughers or generous with their laughs.
Hank Azaria
Image
I put a tremendous amount of pressure on myself. I felt like I shouldn't have to audition for anything and all that. And that energy did not serve me at all.

It's not really difficult to go from one voice into the next.
