fortunate
I've done a lot of Broadway plays, and I'm fortunate they've all been so successful.
nobody wants work
Nobody wants to hear an actor complain about too much work - especially other actors.
male
So much of male heterosexual comedy can be steeped in a gay panic. A lot of juvenile comedy is predicated on that.
european
My neighborhood now is all 21-year-old European supermodels. I go to the international newsstand on the corner, and they're all looking for their pictures in 'Italian Vogue.'
dangers far horrors opened
I think so many doors have been opened for the gay community as far as the dangers and horrors of HIV. There is so much more out-ness now.
addictive anxious gotten work
Work is like a drug. I'm jonesing for more. It's gotten more addictive than I had realized. I get anxious when I have nothing to do now.
sibling
We all have competitive relationships with our siblings.
night crucible broadway
I remember when I was doing The Crucible on Broadway with Laura Linney, and Arthur Miller had been in rehearsal with us and was on stage on opening night. She turned to me during the curtain call and said, Lets make sure we remember this.
When I'm clean-shaven and bathed, I look like a lawyer.
