Quotes

  • I love Twitter. Twitter for me is twofold. I can use it to get out important information about charity stuff and where I'm going to be, and I can get feedback from the audience which I love.
  • My limitations are - I'm not Meryl Streep. I'm not playing anything in a foreign language, or anything too far from who I am.
  • I love the iPhone - I'm a huge Mac and Apple fan.
  • I have always been business minded, always been sorta an entrepreneurial guy; I played a character on 'Felicity' that was modeled after me, actually.
  • I met my wife, I had no money, I had nothing, and I started my family without really, my career was nowhere, but I had these other businesses, I had these things I was doing to be able to afford a small home.
