I don’t need the money after 11 years on ‘Frasier,’ and there aren’t that many great roles onstage left for somebody my age. I’m more interested in playing those roles than I am in playing bit parts in movies.

To me there’s nothing different in principle with a Catholic adoption agency, or indeed Methodist adoption agency, saying the rules in our community are different and therefore the law shouldn’t apply to us. Why not then say sharia can be applied to different parts of the country? It doesn’t work.
I always have sort of been someone who has contradictory parts, and I haven’t tried to uncomplicate myself. I’ve sort of let things seem contradictory, and sometimes it really confuses people.
