The truth is we all want our work to be liked. I wrote a film. People liked it, it won some awards and opened a lot of doors for me and I am happy with that. That's all. I didn't cure any major disease. I believe in the power of film but I don't think I can speak about any sort of influence (yet).

I was a featured regular on Freaks and Geeks (1999) and Undeclared (2001). I was basically an extra. But no one treated me any differently than anyone else on the show. It was a very good atmosphere on both sets. There were no rules about who you could or couldn't talk to. Judd Apatow was great about that. He had a great personality and so the set had a great personality. Know what I mean? It all trickled down from him. I learned so much just by watching. If you had a question you could just ask and trust me I asked plenty. - speaking at a press junket Q & A on his experience working on "Freaks and Geeks" (1999) and "Undeclared" (2001).

Show business is the only profession I know of where if someone drives you to the job interview (audition) and you get the job they feel entitled to half your paycheck. It's ridiculous.

One rule I've learned about film-making is you rarely get to completely do what you want and that's probably a good thing. I really didn't want to play Nick Anderson (in Anderson's Cross (2010)). Too close too my own life. But I'm glad I did. It changed my life. At least my professional life.
