So, from a very young age, my mom tells me that I wanted to be Michael J. Fox. I didn't want to be an actor. I just wanted to be Michael J. Fox for awhile. And then, I realized that he was an actor, so I pursued that.

Theater is a way to keep challenging myself.

I was always into film, but theater was my entry point. I always felt like film didn't make sense to me, as a kid.

I like auditioning. I like working on material. I just love working.

Anytime I met an actor, I just attacked them and said, 'How did you do this?' Eventually, I began to realize that you went to school for it. I wasn't a bright kid, so it took me a long time to figure that out.

It's the big question of every TV show, right, where you have these two people who it's clear the world wants to put them together and everyone wants to see them together, but also when you're telling these stories you can't throw these people together immediately.

I'm really blessed with the people in my life who keep me on track and keep pushing me forward.

My whole career is just terror, from beginning to end. That's kind of my thing. A lot of happy accidents happened.

I just love shows that don't hand everything to you, that ask you to be smarter. I think that's something really important that HBO has done to change the landscape of TV.

Mike and Harvey finally consummate things, a great cliffhanger

I was really a charmer I was the guy who would get to the office, the principal would sit me down and within 10 minutes, we'd be, like, talking about some movies or something.

Troian is one of the most incredibly gifted actors I have ever seen.
