I didn't sing, but I did play the drums.

If everything else falls apart and I'm broke, in 20 years I'll still be able to do 'Twin Peaks' conventions.

I think my parents undoubtedly influenced me on some level.

We were given clear concrete tools. The course did a great job demystifying the art of fiction writing and fostering confidence. The instructor brought complex concepts down to earth. I will miss coming here every week.

I made an enjoyable living as a very young man, but I think as I became more comfortable and knowledgeable about myself and what I wanted, I moved into acting.

I think I was never home when I was directing, because you're either prepping, shooting, or editing, and then acting at the same time. It's really time-consuming, but it was great fun.

I've been so fortunate in that people respond to what I do.

I was a musician for years before I started doing this stuff. Show business was the only thing I ever considered.

My boys have both said they want to be in the movies or on TV, and anytime I hear that, I say, 'That's wonderful; you're free to do it right after you graduate from college.'

Came to acting pretty late. It looked wonderful, but I guess I was intimidated by my father. I look a bit like him, and he was so much bigger than life and so great, it took me a bit longer than most people to have enough confidence in myself.

Maybe I was intimidated by my father's talent and success.
