I like to do things quickly because I’m easily bored.
The real important things are kindness and a sense of humor. I’ve been fortunate to have dated and could have easily married women who have those qualities, and time and circumstances didn’t work out. Timing plays a big part.
I am disturbed that the identification and clothing of our public officials is so easily reproduced.
Some animals are cunning and evil-disposed, as the fox; others, as the dog, are fierce, friendly, and fawning. Some are gentle and easily tamed, as the elephant; some are susceptible of shame, and watchful, as the goose. Some are jealous and fond of ornament, as the peacock.
I always felt that I had a mission in life. I thought I was born to play sports. Even now, I still feel that must have been my mission because I came through so many close calls where my life could very easily have been ended.

I do listen to myself sometimes and think, ‘Is my moral compass so easily swayed by the characters I play, or is it me growing as a human being?’
Look, part of it is that those credits have a list of names of people who work so hard on the show. They do amazing visionary work on ‘Dragon Prince’. And Netflix lets you skip those credits so easily. We wanted to give people a reason to enjoy the credits.

What I can say is that there are some collections that come easily, and others that require more work.

I’ve always been fascinated by the difference between the jokes you can tell your friends but you can’t tell to an audience. There’s a fine line you have to tread because you don’t know who is out there in the auditorium. A lot of people are too easily offended.
