supposed
I was just supposed to say what I was supposed to say and get out.
holding knew pull reach remember rest work
I remember one time, we had someone come in who wasn't from the same background. I'm not going to say who. We all knew it wasn't going to work and it didn't. As for the rest of the guys, they all just really get it. I don't have to reach down and pull them up. Ever. If anything, they're holding me up.
call everybody nobody pick raise support
I think everybody better support a raise for you guys. I think everybody should think about that. You pick up the phone, you call for help, nobody answers.
coming family goes knows start tony
I think there's a place Tony knows that if he goes to, he's not coming back, and that's the place. If you start killing family members, what's next?
bed hired reading script
I was in bed, and I got the script and I was reading it, and I said, 'Man, this is really good, there's no way I'll get hired for this!'
calmed driving himself tony
Tony has mellowed a little bit, just out of necessity. He was driving himself crazy, so he has calmed down.
fun people acting
Part of the fun of acting is the research, finding out about other people.
pants pretending grows
Putting somebody else's pants on and pretending to be somebody else is occasionally, as you grow older, horrifying.
vampire bedtime
All writers are vampires.
fighting tv-shows laughing
What they say about TV shows is true. You're really a family. You laugh, you fight, you get close, you know? Movies are shorter. They're over quicker. You don't form the same bonds.
hbo
I have nothing but respect for HBO.
want privilege
I want nothing to do with privilege.
I'm not a big, three-hour-play, Ibsen-revival kind of man.
good
'The Sopranos' all came down to the writing. I wouldn't have been on for as long as I was if the writing weren't so good.
