[Bad Influence]was David Koepp's first big screenplay. It was actually a writing sample that was around town to get David work at the time, and Steve Tisch - now the owner of the New York Giants - found it, loved it, and together we put it together. But I'd say that would be the one I'd tell people to go and look at if they haven't seen it.

Sobriety was the greatest gift I ever gave myself. I don't put it on a platform. I don't campaign about it. It's just something that works for me. It enabled me to really connect with another human being - my wife, Sheryl - which I was never able to do before.

The script was given to me by one of my agents and they didn't tell me anything about it. My first reaction was, The West Wing? Is it about a squadron of fighter jets? Then I turned the page and saw, 'by Aaron Sorkin' and I knew it was going to be something good.

Your interests change. I used to feel that if I spent evenings reading, or watching a film, or just doing nothing up here at the house, I would probably be missing something that was a lot more fun. I don't have that sense anymore.

Chris [Farley] - I would consider him a comic animal. With the emphasis on animal.

I love that movie [The Specials]. I love James Gunn. I always sort of suspected that he would do well for himself.

Fake confidence on the outside often trumps truthful turmoil on the inside.

I have other obligations now - the show, my family, my life... though I know that without my sobriety I wouldn't have any of those things.

In the business of acting, those are the actors that make the trains run on time, you know? There's nothing without them.

The umbrella that I live under is that you must be truthful with everyone except when to do so would injure them or others.

I had no regrets when I did it, I have even less regret now because I can't imagine staying on the West Wing show and then, six weeks later, Aaron Sorkin leaving.

Apparently Sodapop Curtis said gnarly, and Chris Traeger said literally. Every decade I have a favorite phrase I can't stop with.

[Ed Lauter] was an actor's actor. I love working with that class of actor. You know, they come in, they do it, no bullshit. There's no artifice, there's no fanciness, they're just honest and tough and direct.

I have never felt at any point in my life, good or bad, any ill will ever from the man or woman on the street.

Read between the lines, folks, 'cause I'm here to tell you you're not getting the straight story. Ever. You're getting variations of the truth, if you're lucky.
