Acting on a blue screen is awful.

We go through, I think, six different drafts of each script. And then my shooting it is roughly, you know, fifteen percent of the total work that gets done on a show. Then it's all post-production animation after that.

The best traders are simply slaves to the market's price action

My fantasy for children's television is that it's not really children's television, it's everybody's television.

I'm a micro-celebrity, about as small a celebrity as you can be.

And I think that if I were a for real celebrity that was recognizable everywhere, I'd just crawl under a rock and you know, have someone run over the rock with a car, or something.

When I was a kid, my mom used to run the vacuum cleaner, and the noise would bother me so much that I would run into the woods to calm down. I feel like that vacuum cleaner has been on since I moved to New York City.

Eat as much as you like-just don't swallow it.

The ones who make it, are the ones who manage risk.

Please don't make me sound like a crazy hermit, but I don't like crowds or noise.

If we want parents to be discerning about what children are watching then we need to put stuff in there for them to watch, too.

I always, always liked children... I was very afraid of them before. Because I never really grew up, I mean, with a lot of little kids around. Even though I am from a kind of Italian family, I never really grew up with a lot of little kids around.

The majority of short term trading results are just random. In the long term the money ends up with those that can trade and manage risk.

I'm officially near-famous. If you've got four year old kids and you've got cable, then you've got no choice but to know who I am. But if you're one of my peers - a 26-year old guy who lives in Manhattan - you have no idea who I am. I'm only famous if you're four.
