I'm encouraging other people, whether they're professionals or not, to use their creativity to express themselves, to get a conversation going, to get the party started, really.

I like to come to the set with very strong ideas and strong opinions about how to do things. And I like also dealing with somebody who's like that.

When I'm on set, I never really get intimidated by people.

I like a set to be a happy place, where people can feel free to experiment.

I want to show people that I am that good friend and the person that a lot of people actually come to confide in or even, just, to be around that good energy, because that's what I'm all about.

My way of getting the best from people on a set is to notice their work, to make every prop master, every seamstress, part of 'The Newsroom' or 'The West Wing' or 'Steve Jobs.'

If you're put on a set with a lot of people, it's just nice to see everyone working together.

Without sounding pretentious, it's nice to always be surrounded by creative people who inspire me and keep my levels of creativity charged.

I keep a creative group around me.

I like to get in among a set of people and get to know them very well.
