The amount of time it took me to get a show like 'Shameless' was definitely worth it because of the people and the material. I can appreciate it because I know what it's like when I didn't have a show.

The regrets in the theatre have always been the shows that you know ought to have worked but for one reason or another haven't.

I have no regrets, except perhaps one: I should have tried harder to be a better actor.

I've done a lot of shows that didn't do well. You have to go in with a 50-50 take on it. If it goes well, fantastic. Hope for the best and plan for the worst.

I thought I was learning about show business. The more painful it was, the more important I thought the experience must be. Hating it, I convinced myself it must be invaluable.

I usually say I did the best I could with what I had. I have no major regrets.

I'm not big on regret; I don't spend a lot of time on it.

I had no idea how big the show was at the time we were doing it because I was always working.

I was so enamored with the idea of being in show business so everything was bright to me. I mean, I didn't think of it as being tough and things like that.

When I have a bad show, I can't wait until I can get back on stage to forget about it.
