I've never not been proud of the work I was doing; I have nothing I have any shame about.

I don't think film actors need training, really, but I needed any help I could get.

The white male is one of the easiest things to be. There's always a job; there's always something for you to do.

I'm pretty easy to get along with on set, but I'm probably hard on myself.

I was never the class clown or put on shows at home. I never thought of acting as something I could do with my life. When I was a kid, I used to run around wrapped in toilet paper so I could be the Mummy. But that wasn't a sign that I was dreaming of being an actor. I was just an odd child.

It's funny: most people who recognize me on the subway and stuff - it's much more they think of me as a funny guy. I get much more of people telling me how much I make them laugh, actually. Which is nice.

I don't feel like I've ever done anything - even 'Big Momma's House' - that I didn't really have some desire to do.

I was a big 'Planet of The Apes' fan, so I was really excited about being in it. I had a really good time. I liked wearing all that stuff, and I liked playing the part.

I don't really have any opinion about my performance in 'Big Momma's House.'

I remember when I was at the first showing of 'John Dies at the End' at Sundance, and I was talking to some of the people in the standby crowd who were outside and didn't have tickets. They were just waiting in line to see if they could get in. It was this whole gang of die-hard sci-fi wacko people, and they were just fantastic.
