Personal Quotes

[Talkng about his Rex character from "Desperate Housewives" (2004)]: "He's like the guy in the Talking Heads song. He's like 'This is not my beautiful house, this is not my beautiful wife, how did I get here?'"

[Talking about the death of his sister and brother-in-law Bryan and Kathryn Harvey]: They (both) seemed to be able to touch everyone around them in a positive way. Their deaths are a huge blow that we're all still reeling from. The only positive thing I can say is that we've all been inspired to follow their example in our lives. They were truly amazing people.
