Zitat des Tages von Jim Parsons:
I would be horrible at Twitter. I wouldn't know the answer to fans' questions half the time - and the patience involved! I couldn't imagine. I did have a Twitter account that I tried for a couple days, but found I had nothing to say.
It's a shame, but every time I get something scientific in the script, I read up to find out what I'm talking about - but then I'm on to the next script and it's forgotten.
I don't think the jet-setting life is really for most people.
My hiatus timeline is so minimal, there's only a select number of projects that I can go in for.
My choices in projects have all been character or role-based, and on a financial level, it's obvious: as an actor on a TV series, I get a wonderful paycheck, and a consistent paycheck, which doesn't always happen when you're doing theater or movies.
You just have to speak up. You just have to say, 'I would like to do this,' and it's amazing what people who listen can do for you.
Apparently, all I do is walk my dogs. In L.A., I have more of a yard existence, and so I enjoy walking my two little dogs in New York - one's a Maltese and the other's a Shih Tzu.
The TV schedule is essentially four or five days to get in touch with the story you're doing that week.
I try to master every facet of a character in order to build a safety net for myself, so I can go on to take more risks to create someone really distinct.
The whole time I've been an actor, from early in Houston, my goal has been to work - to keep doing it. I feel at my most satisfied as a human being when I'm working on a role.
I think in any form of acting, you're always well served if you've done theater.
I love seeing tennis up close.

I have never been an activist for anything.
Well, I'm a big believer in 'never say never.'
I think intelligence is usually sexy until it becomes irritating. After that, you're stuck.
When I first started out in Houston, it was theater or bust. And I loved it. I still love it. And then I went to undergraduate and graduate school for acting.
I've been a working actor for many years, but it's not always been successful for me. I certainly struggled in the past.
I did have a Twitter account that I tried for a couple days, but found I had nothing to say. There are some interesting facts I could share, but I don't want to share that part of myself.
I'm only human, and therefore, there's a part of me that's waiting for people to say, 'Enough of you!'
Being in TV, we get to do it again and again until it's 'right.' There's a part of me that likes the other way, that aspect of theatre where there's no chance to go back.
My favorite sci-fi movie of all time is 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind.'
