Theater for me is about enduring human truth. Special effects can be part of that, but when they obscure what is the reason we come to theater - to see reflections of our confounded humanity - the theater has lost its way.

More quotes by Neil Patrick Harris
You can't just put gay in a little gay box anymore.
Neil Patrick Harris
On MTV, the dialogue can be a little darker, more interesting and edgy... the animation is just phenomenal. It's a CGI program that's doing all the animation.
Neil Patrick Harris
I want to be able to infuse some youthful energy and comedy while appreciating the generations before.
Neil Patrick Harris
[Before introducing the nominees for best animated film] If you're at the awards party with the guys who made the Lego Movie, now would be a good time to distract them.
Neil Patrick Harris
What I enjoy so much about the Tonys' uniqueness is that anyone who's tuning in has an interest in seeing the show, so our job is halfway done.
Neil Patrick Harris
We're in such a volatile climate right now politically. I think they didn't want Assassins to not succeed due to popular opinion and politics, versus on its own merits. I can respect that.
Neil Patrick Harris
I love the American musical for the simplicity of emotion that gets expressed.
Neil Patrick Harris
The voiceover thing is very selfless. You go in there and they've hired you for your voice, but they know exactly what they want, and the writer's there and he knows exactly how it's supposed to be said. So you can't really argue with them, you just have to let them tell you what to do and then do it.
Neil Patrick Harris
I've been very fortunate to go from interesting chapter to interesting chapter.
Neil Patrick Harris
I'm having a ball. I just walk in, make some funnies and walk out, no pressure.
Neil Patrick Harris
I have an unbelievable assistant who handles all of my scheduling! It's like a Tetris game.
Neil Patrick Harris
I have more artistic control in a smaller show. But it doesn't really matter. Sometimes you can have the smallest role in the smallest production and still make a big impact.
Neil Patrick Harris
I always thought filet mignon was the steak to beat, but the fat content in a rib eye is fantastic.
Neil Patrick Harris
He's easily the most well-adjusted former child star in the room, please welcome... Jason Bateman.
Neil Patrick Harris
I get to choose things that interest me as opposed to trying to get any job that will have me, which for a vast majority of actors is the case.
Neil Patrick Harris
I like to make decisions based on things I'm interested in doing, not what seems like the next move in my quote-unquote career.
Neil Patrick Harris
So I've done my fair share of theater. I have also been very fortunate in that I've been able to come to New York two or three times a year just to see as many shows as possible. I think the live theater culture here is incredible.
Neil Patrick Harris
I'm a very lucky man in this chapter of my professional life, 'cause I get to do jobs with wildly different skill sets.
Neil Patrick Harris
I don't feel ignored. But I'd rather engage readers than dictate my opinion to them. Opinion is so...subjective!
Neil Patrick Harris
I'd love to be some sort of villain in a big-budget action movie. Or a superhero franchise. That'd be rad.
