Doing animation is closer to pretending than anything else you get to do. It's much more like when you're a kid putting on a character.

I want to be an animated character. I'm also doing more writing and directing.

I think I may have become an actor to hide from myself. You can escape into a character.

I've always wanted to be an animator. That's an ultimate art form, right there.

With animation, because you can draw anything and do anything and have the characters do whatever you want, the tendency is to be very loose with the boundaries and the rules.

One of the defining things about my career on camera is I like to play different characters. That gets difficult to do. People don't trust you to do something different. In animation, it's all about trust and how far can you go away from yourself. It's a really marvelous environment that's extremely creative.

People say that the best part about doing animation is that you don't have to dress up to go to work, but I don't believe that. I dress up to go to work. I dress up for an airplane. I think it's just focusing your skillset, focusing on your voice and the comedy.

As an actor, I think you should always disappear a little. I act in order to lose myself.
