I could have been a mediocre tap dancer.

If you drugged me with truth serum and said I can only do one thing, I would probably have to say that I would be an actor in the theater. And then I would have you arrested for drugging me.

I don't have a lot of lifetime regrets, and very few show business regrets, surely.

I like the compressed nature of the story telling.

When I go to see theater, I'm consumed with professional jealousy.

I can do a Green Day joke and people actually get it.

Audiences want to see people break rules for love, to challenge the fates for love.

Hugh Grant is really the perfect actor for romantic comedies. Anything he does is invariably charming.

Audiences know the form in their bones, they know that romantic comedies end in an uplifting way.

In New York you can actually run into people on the street, unlike in California where you're always in the car.

In New York you go to the coffee shop, have a bagel, walk down the street, get hassled, run into someone else. People just waltz into your world and it's believable.

People are a lot more tolerant when they're home watching TV and they're looking for a laugh.

TV shows about TV were taboo for a while.
